India struggles to meet the demand for outsourcing

The article below applies to outsourcing, which was a topic my International Management class covered recently. Some countries are having difficulty keeping up with the rising demand for outsourcing services. This article focuses on Indian company named Infosys. Infosys is having trouble trying to create and maintain a workforce to meet the increasing demand for its outsourcing services. They lost many employees during the recession due to low pay, tough performance reviews and rare promotions.


With a surge in demand for services the firm is trying to get their old employees back. They are hoping to do so through new and improved human resource campaigns. Infosys says the firm expects to hire 30,000 previous and new employees this current fiscal year. If they do not, this may result in companies doing more business in their home base or outsourcing elsewhere.
