Accenture plans to add 12,000 jobs at new campus in Vishakhapatnam amid Trump’s H-1B visa shake-up
Tech consultancy giant Accenture has proposed building a new campus in the southern Indian state of Andhra Pradesh, with plans to eventually add about 12,000 jobs to its India workforce, three people familiar with the development told Reuters.
The proposal follows similar deals made by IT firms Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) and Cognizant, both of which have taken advantage of a new state policy that offers leased land at just 0.99 rupees (around $0.0112) per acre to large employers willing to generate jobs.
