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.

All Companies are not Hire and Fire Companies…. All the above who say this do not have enough experience in the market! Companies which are IT Consulting & Marketing units & have international name , are working on U.S Culture and Process usually does that like Sapient, Satyam, WIPRO, Accenture.
These are the topmost hire and fire companies to be wary of in INIDA. eg. Sapient fires 1 in every 3 of its employees.

Guys,Dont opt for Accenture…Its the best of all worst companies in the world…it is known for firing…and the reasons given for firing ranges from ” U not completing the online courses to U being in bench for 3months…they do not have projects in hand…just to keep up reputation they are hiring people and firing them when they are aged in bench…Quietly they will flush out people by cooking reasons..iam working for Accenture for past 2yrs and i have been seeing this…aim trying to quit Accenture but in vain as i do not ahve project exp..

Collabera is a assfuck*ng company. If you want your asshol*e ripped off then go work there. How they treat employees? Don’t ask. How they fire? They will call you like they do in casual meeting. You go there and learn you are fired. Come back to your desk and discover that your mail company account and your system password deleted. Need more info? Go and join Collabera.

Hi people,
Accenture s firing people in different ways, instead of giving lay offs , they came up with new plans to fire people so they dont get a name as layoffs… in simple they are finding reasons to fire the people.

Acc is firing people in different ways, instead of giving lay offs , they came up with new plans to fire people so they dont get a name as layoffs… in simple they are finding reasons to fire the people.
Firing eg: Putting the people into performane improvement program and firing them by giving feed back as there is no improvement.
And zooming in all polcies to find people to fire….
they have fired nearly 7000 people in their IDC..(as per Acc emp talks)
some times there is no gurentee for ur job in Acc even there is no mistake from ur end but as long as you stay with them u can have gud benfits.
