As the West goes to bed, the East rises, and young, enterprising executives at Office Tiger in Chennai put their hearts and souls into meeting the needs of their clients across the Atlantic. Following a merciless selection process, rigorous in-house training greets new employees. Reports, analyses and presentations are prepared and proofed around the clock within the most demanding deadlines. The environment is fiercely competitive, and the players are driven by a fanatical passion to succeed atop the corporate ladder. The sacrifice of personal lives and the promise of excruciatingly long working hours are no deterrent for people from diverse educational and professional backgrounds flocking to be a part of a company playing its small yet significant part in India’s booming economy.

OFFICE TIGERS is a personal and humorous journey into the everyday lives of the people who run this immensely successful, trend-setting organization and the ambitious employees who are willing to give everything to be an Office Tiger.
