For an engineer, getting a job at PCI was like getting admission into IIT. But now these same engineers were fleeing this once mighty company, competitors were swallowing its market share and profits were falling to an all-time low. Meanwhile, a small band of “Patriots’ within the organization come together to try and save their beloved company. But for this, they will have to take on the ‘boogeyman’—their suave, sharp-tongued and narcissistic CMD who had the board in his pocket and the mandarins in Delhi on his payroll. Could they face down this formidable opponent and turn the company around? Or would they have to go down with the sinking ship?
