Well one thing is for sure that sapient did a lot of PR exercise to hide the reality on glass door via fake comments. It surely has hire and fire policy. With winter coming for IT services, please exercise caution if you are the bread earner for ur family.
Unsolicited advice - don't be intimidated by HR. Record the discussion on phone. Ask for min 2 months of severance, gratuity, paid leave encashment, medical insurance.
Make sure you can record that there is no performance reason for layoff

If you are on probation, legally your notice is just 30 days so how can you ask for 2 months? Also they are mostly targeting people on probation and on bench who could not be placed in any project. They will just say poor performance.
300 + people has been fired from the sapient
I don’t think so
Ita true.. Hell lot of people fired for no reason
How many people fired so far.......any specific criteria of firing like only bench people or people in projects too?
New joiners are first one to layoff then comes the old sapient employees who are on bench for longer periods. I know both of them personally
Chief
If they are firing, then why are they recruiting at the same time?
Are they firing people in data and COE
Irrespective of the department! If you’re in bench, start looking outside asap!
New joiners are the first ones to lay off. They are forced to resign before the probation ends.
They did the same in 2020, 2021 many times then many demand increased they have to do increment twice in a year, promotions & hike to reduce attrition with hiring. Seems like they pulled it twice so making a norm since India has lot of talented resources on low salary due to many reasons. Upper management is like do nothing but make money by margins, don't let settle good enough newly hired people who can compete them in good way.
They fired lots of contractors in 2018 too
What is the criteria for forced resignation?
