Nearly 30,000 IT professionals affected by delayed Onboarding
IT majors of India Wipro, Infosys, and Tech Mahindra have also revoked the offer letters issued to many freshers candidates. Students have received a letter stating that their employment letter is being revoked.

According to Harpreet Singh Saluja, President of NITES, an IT employees association, nearly 30,000 IT professionals have been impacted by the delay in onboarding at top IT firms like Infosys, Wipro, Tech Mahindra, Capgemini, and others.

“The ballpark figure could be around 30,000 professionals because it is an ongoing process. Throughout the year, campus placements are conducted by these IT companies”, said Harpreet Singh Saluja.

He further added, “We are in touch with thousands of students, this figure can cross 30,000 also.”

It was earlier reported that Wipro had postponed the joining date of its more than 2000 students/employees, despite their compliance with its assessment guidelines. Post this Capgemini also delayed the onboarded IT professionals.

Harpreet Singh Saluja said it is “hypocrisy” within the narratives of IT firms in regard to ethics and values. 

He stated, “IT firms ought to be held answerable for placing the careers of scholars and workers in danger. The businesses discuss superficially their ethics and values however in actuality, it’s sheer crony capitalism.”

“IT companies should be held responsible for putting the careers of students and employees at risk. The companies talk superficially about their ethics and values but in reality, it is sheer crony capitalism. It’s clear cheating on the organizations’ part as it’s not just the students but their families who also suffer from false promises. Trusting the IT organizations, these students and employees have avoided other employment opportunities”, he further said.

He added, “We’ve requested the Ministry of Labour and Employment to take appropriate actions. The Authorities should take satisfactory measures to safeguard the life, future, and profession of those college students.”

IT majors of India Wipro, Infosys, and Tech Mahindra have also revoked the offer letters issued to many freshers candidates.

Students have received a letter stating that their employment letter is being revoked. The Tech companies have been revoked on grounds of failing certain eligibility criteria and company guidelines.
