Top most Hire and Fire IT companies in India

Top most Firing IT companies in India

1) IBM — Right now this is the most firing company for IT professionals. In the last 6 months, this company has fired nearly 20% of their employees because of BG check and performance issues. This is the most insecure company from an IT professional’s point of view. They don’t have any strategic plans at HR policies regarding employee security. No appraisals (maximum 10%).

2) Accenture — This is second top most firing company. The firing rate is around 5%. This depends upon outsourced projects; they have a unique system where Accenture development centers around the world bid for a project coming into the company. Currently Philippines centre is taking the cake and the Indian centers are in a firing mode.

3) WIPRO — Firing people with very frequent back ground checks and firing them with out even experience letters and relieving letters (will mention as terminated from services)but will promise the employees that they will retain them. After the project is over they will fire away. Will threaten of criminal cases against such employees if they oppose the move and has also filed against some.

4) Intel — Recently joined the league. Running in heavy losses, hence firing 3000 employees in the Banglore center in a phased out manner.

5) CTS — Has a steady firing policy (checking the Educational background and previous employment and also employee performance in work). In a Recent HCL walk-in, around 50% attendees were from this company. Sadly the I-pods have not helped them.

6) CSC — Excellent package but fires folks in Background check and those on bench regularly. Recently fired 400+ employees from its subsidiary Covansys.

7) Satyam — Currently stopped firing. The Attrition rate is very high. No firing from 2005 until now when 1000 employees were fired in Hyderabad.

8. Patni —- They fired so many employees that currently they are facing understaffing and deficiency with number of employees. Very high attrition rate.

9) Keane India —- This USA based company is always involved in firing employees. Although they proudly say that they dont have hire and fire policy. Recently they fired java and as400 professionals after which most of the employees have started to pack their bags. Employees change this company within 1 year.

So take care before accepting offers from these companies.

Secure IT companies in India

1) Microsoft — Has projects till 2050.

2) EDS — Most secure company in India. Not laid off any of its employees even during 2001. Has lots of projects in Defense and financial areas

3) HP — Dream Company. In-house and outsourced projects

4) TCS — A govt. Company.

5) AOL, Google and Yahoo – Best companies to work with, great job satisfaction as well as great salary and work environment. Rarely fires an employee. As they are internet based companies’ they offer lots of opportunities to grow.

6) HCL — A good company to be in. Called as a retirement company.

7) HSBC— This is the most secure company. It has never fired any employee, even when they know that the employee is showing fake experience.

8. Aricent— a communication based software company, has never fired any employee and gives great perks & incentives, lot of projects in kitty. Minimal level of attrition.

9) KPIT Cumminns Infosystems Limited —- This is the most secure company not known to many. It has presently acquired CG Smith, Bangalore and has lots of projects in pipe line. Acquisitions plans will continue.

  2. Are these results based on any market survey or real data, or is it just a few people’s view. If these are based on any survey, could you please name the institution which performed the survey and their method of gathering these data.

    Thanks

  4. hello guys,
    there is one more company which is not listed.
    It is TCS.
    It is no more a govt company.
    In this financial year they have fired more than 5000 employees and more.This did not make news as it was not bulk firing.It was done like 2 per day or 3 per day from all over India centers.I have seen victims closely.(The HR list).

    Trust me that no company is govt company now a days.It all depends on the projects and profits.
    Even Microsoft India has fired employess.

    Thanks

  5. This is an old post. Now situations have changed. TCS will be in the first position. They are firing more people.

    I’m a victim of TCS firing. They are saking people just like that. Every project in TCS is like a parliament. We need to play politics to survive. Frankly telling this political play is to fire people out. Every manager & HR are getting more rating in their appraisal time if they fired out enough people.

    TCS is a hell….
    TCS is like a politician club…
    TCS only supports higher management people…

    TCS is not an employee freindly concern. Dont join there. Don’t loose everything from there

    TCS is a totally employee unfreindly.

    Kindly black list that company. If you have any other offers don’t stick with TCS.

  8. Some companies took advantage of recession period, although they were running into profits. These companies fired employees and told them that they are in loss.

  9. Add Sasken to the list of employer who are regularly firing their employees irrespective of the fact that they are now doing good. Every quarter they identify 50-100 employees whom they fire on the grounds of performance and attitude issues or being on bench for a long time. The General Managers have completely lost their ethical values and want 100% complaince from the employees irrespective of their un-reasonable expectations.

  12. “The general population, however, contains many criminals that we probably don’t want to hire” Say it makes sense for an individual company not to hire a former criminal. What is the societal damage from all these former criminals never getting jobs? If a criminal conviction is “I sentence you to 2 years in prison and 20 years being unemployed” does it 1. Reduce first crimes 2. Increase crime amongst those already convicted?

  13. To add further agony to the case of some of the fired employees, some of the telecom IT service based companies like Sasken, Wipro are indulging in sharing blacklist of employees among themselves. This makes the exited employee almost impossible to get employment in Industry. This is worst kind of back-stabbing to the employee and the employee will not even know that they are vicitims of black-listing. The blacklist is being subjected to heights of abuse and harming people. If a supervisor had some problem with the subordinate’s behaviour such as expecting un-reasonable work within a very tight deadline or wanted to join an employee on a specific project which is not of his interest. He/She will initiate termination of employee and lateron blacklist them to make them suffer of unimaginable magnitude. Such people are modern day’s demon with no conscience or moral values. Company have the right to fire people but blacklisting them on immoral grounds is highly in-human.

  14. I work in a college at bangalore, which is 32 kms outside the limits of the city towards Hesaraghatta.Here the Management hires and fires you if you do not respect the peon or the watchmen. You have to put salaam to all the office staff.
    When the Recession was high last year the management use to pay the salary once in 2 months or 3 months. So some people went and questioned the admn people what has Recession to with the admissions because the college is any how getting huge donatioons for that immediately 12 were removed without any warning and in that some had 7-8 years of exerience in that college for them the reliving letter showed as Terminated.

    Starting with a mere pharmacy the college is grwn with Nursing, polytechnic, Engineering, MBA and MCA .
    There are roughly about 6000 students studying here and the college is affliated to VTU and BU.
    Approximately the college makes about 120 crores in a year and in that 10 percent is been given to the babus of the state and to the press so that no complaint from any one gets noticed.

    There are a quite few thugs who are from the prestigious IIM Band they have lost their jobs in the recession and they have been appointed as Sr. faculties in MBA and PGDM getting a whooping salary of 1.2 lacs permonth working just for 4 hrs a day for 6days with perks like housing and chauffer. But if you see the techinbg talent it cannot be compared even to a Kindergarden teacher so bad is their quest for teaching and I do not know what results we can expect from these Thugs of IIM B.

    I was recently fired because I mingle with all the students in the college since I’m a Business communication Teacher and I have to do so to know them better but some have gone to the chairman and told that I’m having Extra marital relations with the lady students of Engineering, MBA and MCA. That is the mentality ofsome of the older staff who are in HR and Corporate Relations of this college . But I can Survive in bangalore because it is not new for me may be I have to wait for another 2months before any college advertises.

    There is politics in each and every orgnisation but it should be healthy. so please think twice or thrice while joining anyInstituion.and don’t try to give any comments to your friend or so because the walls have ears too. so it will be apt to start some business associated with the school or college curriculum like supplying of Stationary materials or dress to the satudents or catering.

    I finish hereby sayiing Robert Frost’s poem “The Road less travelled”

    There is plenty of scope outside we have to wait for the catch or if you think of working overseas the bestpalce will be any European country . i came from Spain only because of my marriage and for the last 15 years I had the most of it M& D SSo i will shortly making a study of overseas Teraching and gointhere. I really don’t want to go to US, fareast and Middle east.

    if You have any opinions or comments please send me a mail at gatwick1966@yahoo.com
