If reports are to be believed, Infosys has significantly increased the number of promotions. Five years ago, there were nearly 8,000-10,000 annual promotions. In 2021-22, the IT major gave 40,000 promotions. “The number could further rise this year”, said Infosys EVP and group HR head Krish Shankar.
Moreover, the IT giant is also focusing on early career growth of employees with incentives such as “early career rewards” so that they are clear about their growth path within the organization.
For faster growth of techies, the Infosys has also introduced bridge programmes wherein employees can pick up alternative skills, which in turn brings higher compensation. The bridge programme has been in place for quite a while and the Company has worked on adding new courses to the programme this year.
Similarly in 2019, Infosys Ltd had introduced skilling programmes and compensation-based incentives to reduce high attrition levels.
