TCS - India in the US

The article talks about TATA Consultancy services, an Indian consulting firm that has recently set up an office in Cincinnati. Even though, it is an Indian giant, it is still small compared to global giants such as HP. It is interesting in that the article talks about factors that contributed to TCS's decision of setting up an office in Cincinnati. The low cost of setting up an office, the proximity of a good market and the availability of low-cost quality labor from nearby universities (where the taskforce is cheaper than that of Ivy league schools) are all important factors. Also, the article says that they have employed a large number of American students and are looking to employ more. If you are graduating soon, this might be a good place to look!

  2. This, looks rather interesting, considering the time of the companies entrance to the US. Where jobs become more difficult to come by for graduating college students things such as this will help to lower the unemployment rates.

  3. The economy in the U.S. seems to be hurting the most in rural areas like much of the Plains and Midwest. Tata relocated closer to a major city, so they can now scout the areas of major universities in the Midwest, where some of the top non-Ivy league schools are. I think that this company will start booming with business over the next few years and help get the economy back on track.
