GlobalLogic is ranked #16 in this annual listing of India’s leading IT companies alongside HCL Infosystems, Microsoft India, Tata Consultancy Services and Intel India. Additionally, GlobalLogic ranked #9 for its organizational culture and #10 for its HR ranking. Mukul Jain, COO, GlobalLogic Inc. said, “This industry recognition is a testimony to GlobalLogic’s philosophy that our people are our greatest asset. The DNA of GlobalLogic's success has been one of integrity, empowerment and innovation. We realize that it is not just compensation or great technology; it is the 'total experience' - as individuals and as professionals that we provide to every employee that gives them satisfaction and success.” The eighth annual Dataquest-IDC Best Employers Survey studied employees across 33 companies. It ranked the companies on employee satisfaction (80% weightage) and HR score (20% weightage). The HR score included quantitative parameters like size, growth, employee growth, retention and HR initiatives. "Growth opportunities" and "Work-Life Balance" emerged as the largest driver of satisfaction. The study was conducted among IT companies on collection of information from both the HR departments as well of employees of the participating companies. "Salary growth was pulled down by industry growth down last year...there were even concerns about job security. So it's interesting that work-life came up as one of the top five reasons for switching IT jobs in India," said Prasanto Kumar Roy, chief editor at CyberMedia, publishers of Dataquest. "This Indian IT professional is maturing." About IDC-DQ Best Employer SurveyDQ Top 20 is India's oldest and most comprehensive IT industry survey report.
