Infosys continues job cuts: 45 trainees fired after February layoffs of 350 employees

Infosys has fired 45 trainees at one of its offices in Bengaluru after they failed to clear internal assessments despite three consecutive attempts. This comes after the company fired as many as 350 employees in February, according to a Times of India (TOI) report citing sources.

Earlier, Infosys let go of 700 trainees who had been hired two-and-a-half years ago but were onboarded in October 2024. The company stated that these people failed to pass the company’s internal assessments. However, many have complained that the difficulty level of the test was higher compared to previous ones.
