One of the most important landmarks in Directi’s history will be the day we move into DirectiPlex, the unofficial codename for our new building in Andheri East. While it has been spoken about plenty of times, as a Directian you just can’t get enough of the new office. It houses about 1700 people, and will have several amenities including a gym, spa, gaming zone and even a bowling alley!

So when the idea of visiting the ‘under construction’ version was put forth, it was obviously well received. To be able to trek across the basement and then its multiple storeys and visualize what we have seen in 3D graphic images, was an opportunity that got several people excited.

The experience was absolutely unforgettable! Sitting on tiny rocks and concrete (on what we counted as the 6th floor), and humming tunes performed by a group of music enthusiasts (more fondly referred to as the Directi band) was fascinating. After that, we spray painted the walls and pillars with everything from ip addresses to the amateur version of the Mona Lisa. The trip came to an end with a tour of the entire building - leaving all of us even more excited to start working there.
