The Question is...

They give their companies highest scores on “The work I do is crucial to the company’s growth”, and the lowest on “The company lives up to the promises it made in its advertisements”. We asked 544 ITeS employees across the country 61 different questions relating to their work and their companies. Here’s what they had to say…

Methodology



Employees were asked to rate each statement on a scale of 1 to 10, where 1 was strongly disagree and 10 was strongly agree. Based on their responses, means were calculated for an overall assessment of the industry’s performance on each question and each parameter. Based on this, for instance, ITeS employees appeared most satisfied on training, people and culture, and least satisfied on job content and career growth, composite satisfaction and salaries.

However, the key score to watch out for when looking at any single company is the “most satisfied” or “strongly agree” score. It is an indication of employee engagement with the company and usually a better indicator of a company’s strengths.

Essentially, it measures how many of its employees are most satisfied on any single count. Industry numbers indicate percentage employees saying ‘Strongly Agree’, ‘Somewhat Agree’ or ‘Strongly Disagree’ with each statement. Company rankings are based on percentage employees saying ‘Strongly Agree’ only.
