Commenting on iGATE's performance in the Best Employers Survey, Ed Nair,
Editor, Dataquest said, 'I congratulate iGATE for their consistent performance
in the Best Employers survey. This year, the company has ranked No.1 in areas
of company culture, job satisfaction, training and development, salary,
appraisal system, and was chosen as the preferred employer in the IT industry
by external as well as internal employees.'
Accepting the award, Srinivas Kandula, Global Head of Human Resources, iGATE
said, 'We are delighted to continue our strong leadership position in the Best
Employers Survey. This ranking bears testimony to competency-based HR framework
and egalitarian work culture. We look forward to continue our endeavor of
providing an enriching environment and best-in-class practices to our
workforce.'
The survey was designed and carried out in two phases. In the first phase, HR
questionnaires were sent to around 200 IT companies. These spanned systems to
software companies, both domestic and exports players. The questionnaire sought
information on areas such as employee strength, salary structure, training
days, tenure of top management, etc. Of the 200 companies, 49 companies
participated in the first phase. Out of these, 38 companies were then
shortlisted for the second round i.e., the employee survey based on parameters
such as Total Employee Size; Average Tenure of Senior Management; Total Average
Training; Retention Rate; Average Salary Hike (in Percentage).
About Business Outcomes
iGATE's industry-first Business Outcomes-based approach focuses on the
realization of tangible and measurable results, unlike traditional models which
are driven by work, effort, time and manpower. By integrating technology and
processes in a proprietary way and pricing services on results, iGATE exchanges
fixed costs for a variable cost structure in an attempt to get clients to 'pay
for results only' while enabling them to adjust to the peaks and valleys of
their demand.
