- ByAyushi Ray | August 25, 2021
COO NG Subramaniam said that TCS can have 1 million employees. TCS, which is India’s largest software firm and one of the biggest employers, wants to move to a hybrid model where only 25 percent of its employees need to spend time at the office by 2025. Its Chief Operating Officer N Ganapathy Subramaniam is sure to be in the 25 percent, as he believes being in the office is important to get key tasks done and also a place where you have undivided attention. NGS, who joined TCS in 1982, held many leadership positions before becoming COO in February 2017. In a freewheeling interview with Moneycontrol, he spoke about the business momentum, its bets on Electric Vehicles & the Tata super app, why the company is not worried about the war for talent and the future of work.
“There will be some increases here and there. But 18 months ago, we said that these are the additional training programs in digital available to you. You have an offer in TCS, but if you invest your time, get yourself qualified for these skills, you will double your salary. So consciously we are encouraging people to become digitally capable in skills like full stack developers and ready for the future,” says NSG, about freshers salary he says , “ I don’t think there is a pressure on salary. Ultimately, the market is large. If I want to hire 40,000 people in India via the National Qualifier Test (NQT), we have 200,000 people registered. Why did we go for NQT? It is not that we just go and hire people based on their CV. Everything is digitised and we know exactly this person took this much time to answer this question. “
