My husband is a recent college graduate in the United States and he recently received an e-mail from Wipro Technologies in response to a resume he posted on the web. Since they are located in India, we don't know much about them. Are they a scam or are they a legitimate company that hires American programmers? We can't afford to lose money here, so I would be very happy if someone could give me some information about the company. Thanks!
Answer:
Oh yes maam ….its a very legitimate company. It is owned by Azim Premji , who is one of the richest Indians in the world….his group of companies covers everything from cosmetics to information technology……As a matter of fact , the father of Indian BPO , Raman Roy , is with Wipro…..it all started here……Consistently its BPO operations have been doing good and though in IT they may not be the ideal in india now(like infosys and TCS)….they were certainly the pioneers. I understand your skepticism in the wake of Satyam ….the it company that went bust….but just a little more reading would tell you why it can’t happen to Wipro…..the very fact that they are a massive group of companies and the way Indian economics relies on stability …..tells you that this company is here to stay. However i would still ask you to research more on other aspects of the job….like facilities and perks and whether family is given an accomdation…..Wipro operates in all major cities and are located in mostly the most urban part of the city ….So i am sure you wouldn’t have issues of healthcare and schools. But yes do check on the medical scheme still ….As i mentioned these are things you would normally check when you get any job ….but just a bit more in-depth….in case you have any other queries ….feel free to mail me ….i have a couple of freinds in wipro
