I cannot upvote you because I don't agree with multiple parts and/or details of your post, but based on what I observed so far I can agree with this: > Indians are good at office politics because they are yes-men and therefore succeed. Compared to other nationalities (in my case in random order italian/german/swiss/polish/american/french/hungarian/turkish/greek), I noticed indians, as managers, being a lot more willing to initially accept anything while others would have probably shouted an initial "NO WAY!". I do worry about this for the company I'm working for (we now have many indian managers). I cannot say the same for indians as developers (the ones that worked/are working for us had/have strong positions about their code/logic and were/are still able to accept valid changes/proposals/improvements), I liked it and I still like it.
