Internet Access:
All Software It companies do have internet access. All companies have their own internet policy. Companies may restrict internet access based on grades and project needs. During the training days need for internet would be minimal as you would be busy in training and assignments. However to clear some doubts you may use the internet. Some companies do restrict internet access times and especially for trainees this need is not seen.
Use internet diligently, do not let your facebook and twitter access to overshadow the work at hand. Some people may get carried away with full unlimited internet access and leave the focus from training which could prove disastrous.
We would see internet access and policies in detail in a separate chapter later.
E-mail :
Everyone will have an unique e-mail id created with <company>.com domain. The intention of this id is only for official purposes and the company has every right to inspect and review the mail box. Yes most companies do not mind using this for personal mail but one has to be aware that there is nothing personal in this mailbox. Any admin who has access to the server can read your mails and it is legally allowed.
Given this fact, unless and until something suspicious is happening no one will really sneak in to your inbox. However it is better to keep personal things private and official things official.
Intranet Forum Usage:
Most companies have common public forums within the company similar to many internet public forums. The forums could vary from totally junk items to very specific technical forums. The technical forums usually do not pose problems, even as a fresher you maybe welcome to post very basic queries and some nice techie guy would reply to you. However it is not advisable to post your assignment here and ask for an answer.
The junk and general discussion forums usually needs some care in what you post. One is certainly not expected to post items favoring a political party or questioning a corporate policy. However each company will have a policy to draw the lines and these forums are more actively monitored to identify trouble makers. There have been cases where people have been asked from posting apology letters to leaving the company.
