VISAKHAPATNAM: Information technology giant Infosys would start its operations in the two-tiered Visakhapatnam from October 1. To start with, the company has rented a four-storey building at Rushikonda IT SEZ Hill-2 in the city to set up a satellite office. The tenancy agreement with the owner of the building will be effective from October 1 for about Rs. 40 lakh per month as lease amount. This will be a temporary set up. As per the initial plans, the company will start with the existing employees from Vizag, who are currently working from home (WoH) due to the pandemic-induced lockdowns. "A decrease in output quality from the WfH system and the moonlighting practices of employees (who quietly work alongside for another company) have wisened employers to get the staff back to work from office (WfO). So, almost all big companies are actively opening satellite offices to facilitate the WfO culture for employees," an IT entrepreneur told Deccan Chronicle.

The organization has announced that going forward, it will continue to invest more in such talent hubs across different tier-II cities in the country. Currently, it will set up new offices in Noida, Coimbatore, Kolkata and Vizag. This is not the first time Infosys will be building up offices in tier II city locations in India, as smaller work centres of the company are already present in Nagpur and Indore. Infosys Will Now Open New Offices in Noida & 3 Other Tier-II Locations In a bid to remain closer to the talent pool in tier-II cities of India, the domestic IT major Infosys will set up 4 new offices in Noida, Coimbatore, Kolkata and Vizag. The new offices will not be as big in size as the ones in Tier I cities like Bengaluru and Delhi, but it will also not be a mere satellite office, informed the organization’s group head of human resource Krishnamurthy Shankar. Most young crowd pool in the IT sector come from tier II cities, and since the onset of pandemic in 2020, such employees have not been able to return to their office locations after going back to their hometowns. This has opened up an opportunity to attract talent from across the country, st...
