Go easy on policies. It is to help employees, not to punish them.
Increase the salary. One of the reason, why infosys doesn't have skilled and highly technical employees.

Cons

Advice to Senior Management

Many Infoscions face this problem of getting trained in one technology(say java) and are put into an altogether a different domain(say customer support) that makes them unsatisfied and that becomes a never ending loop for their career. My advice is to make such positions rotational or consider employees who are very well interested and capable of working in complex development projects but are struct with some support/maintenance project , can be moved them into development positions

Pros

1. Campus
2. Clarity of communication from top-level on any organization wide issues
3. Periodic appraisals
4. Onsite opportunities
5. Challenges in support area (some of them may be unrealistic)

Cons

1. Managers/Employees working are not ambitious or driven by motivation.
2. No clarity in policies which would help employees like promotion/leave..most of them too ambigioius.
3. Policies give a feeling that you are reading constitution of a state or country and not a company.
4. Least flexible in adjusting.
5. Too much emphasis on clients out of the business area as well.
6. Too many medicore people working for the company also hurts the company a bit.
7. Useless hiring process.

Advice to Senior Management

Get the best resources to work for you and rest of commitments will be taken care of. Show killer instinct in a deal or project so that clients know you value them instead of showing-off before them.

Take preferences from employees at the least .
