September 26, 2005 -- The Dataquest-IDC Annual Survey 2005 of the Best Indian Employers in the IT sector has been published. RMSI, a global IT services company, announced today, that for the third year running they made strides upwards within the spotlighted “Top Twenty” ranking, jumping from last year’s 16th place to a “4-Star” designation (equating to a 4th-7th place finish). Employee satisfaction, career development, and corporate governance emerged as the organization’s key strengths this year.

It was a vote of employee confidence for RMSI. Its performance across all employee satisfaction parameters was extremely consistent. On the employee satisfaction parameter RMSI moved to the 2nd position (14 places up from last year). Employees, who participated in the survey, expressed high satisfaction on issues such as flexibility of work hours, career growth opportunity and development, and company culture.

The company's job design and job content bode well, with most employees expressing satisfaction and carrying a high sense of pride, passion and excitement towards their work profile. Another parameter that found high favor with RMSI's employees is its appraisal process, which they felt was extremely transparent, methodical, and fair.

“As an organization, we have always believed in empowering our people and nurturing their aspirations and talents to maximize value creation for all our stakeholders. Being chosen as a people-centric organization for the third consecutive year is a manifestation of our belief that our people are our greatest asset,” said Neerja Verma, Senior Vice President (Human Resources), RMSI.
