I had a brief stint with a consulting major and did some ground work for bidding large projects. Let me tell you it will be very difficult to move WFH at least for Indian IT. I also tried recruiting some mid level folks from Indian IT majors. The manufacturing level mindset i.e. 9-6 time stamping is rampant in companies such as Wipro, Infy etc. Before talking about WFH can they allow their workforce to work anytime from the office only? What has stopped them to go for time flexibility? Many project managers in these IT companies will not get good night’s sleep without seeing their flock together in their own secured office bay. This workplace flexibility is about mindset change and trusting your own employees rather than just about cost.
