After recent layoffs, Infosys defers internal assessments for trainees

Close on the heels of an outcry over recent layoffs of more than 300 freshers in its Mysuru campus, Infosys has now postponed, by a week, internal assessments scheduled for trainees. The company has, however, asserted that the deferment is aimed at giving them additional time for preparation. IT employee union Nascent Information Technology Employees Senate (NITES), meanwhile, claimed that the assessment meant for 800 trainees was postponed due to its intervention, "unwavering fight against unfair layoffs", as well as government action. Countering this, Infosys, in a statement, said it had not received any requests from the government or external parties to postpone assessments. "We are deferring our assessments by a week to provide additional preparation time for our trainees," Infosys said. Last week, the Bengaluru-headquartered IT services company had laid off over 300 freshers who underwent foundational training at its Mysuru campus but could not clear internal assessments aft
