Meet Basant Kumar. He wears an immaculate suit and speaks fluent "synergy," but in twenty-two years, he hasn't completed a single day of actual work.
When FinCore Technologies lands a €50-million contract for a high-speed banking API, Basant demands the impossible: a heavy 3D heat-map built into the invisible, high-performance router. It is like strapping a parachute to a Formula 1 car.
As latency spikes and the system heads toward a crash, Basant deploys his ultimate defense: the Cross-Functional Issue Escalation Matrix, a labyrinth designed to blame everyone else for his incompetence.
In this biting corporate thriller, discover:
The art of weaponizing an Outlook "Read Receipt."
How to destroy a tech project using only a PowerPoint deck.
The "Sunk Cost Fallacy" that keeps incompetent leaders in power.
The Empty Suit is razor-sharp satire for anyone who has ever dismantled a working system to satisfy a manager’s ego. The corporate structure is designed to protect the parasite. But eventually, the code has to run.
And empty suits cannot write code.
