Rank 2 - Allsec Technologies : The Money Boost

Inching closer to the number one spot, Allsec managed to meet a range of
employee expectations well. It is in fact one of the few companies that got full
scores on compensation. The company seemed to have created a fine balance
between salary, perks and benefitsin all these parameters the employees gave
very high scores. But on the downside, the company needs catching up on the
training front.

The companys HR head acknowledges the fact that in 2009, it did not invest
in training due to the ongoing recession. It rather focused on keeping its
operational efficiencies in the pink and worked on countering the recessionary
impact. Another dampener was infrastructure where employees gave Allsec a thumbs
down. Notwithstanding the few downers the company worked on areas like improving
its appraisal systems further and added functions like recruitment mode and peer
feedback among others.

On the growth side, the company did get lower scores; this was the case in
2008 as well. But the company says that in the last six months employees have
found growth opportunities due to its increasing focus on the domestic market.
With the significant and growing domestic slice, the company also brought in
some of the best practices that it has put in place for its global business
processes. And in the ongoing year Allsec expects its lower rank on growth
changing for better.

Allsec also worked on employee integration as a result of its acquisition of
the call center business of Delhi based i2i Telesource. Despite the overall
recessionary trends Allsec did not downsize and the increased domestic market
penetration acted as a big savior for the company in sustaining its business.
