Tavant Technologies witnessed a tough time last year, loosing a major chunk
of its business due to the troubled mortgage industry in the US. Despite facing
a business crisis the management came up with new initiatives to motivate and
boost the confidence of employees uncertain about their future. Following
employee-friendly HR strategies and initiatives, Tavant Technologies managed to
retain its place in the top 10.
According to the DQ-IDC Best Employer Survey, the companys strength was its
culture, which employees feel creates a very positive work environment. The
fun-at-work model, flexibility, work-life balance and initiatives for women
employees helped Tavant score high on the positive work environment parameter.
The company also scored high in the employees sense of great professional and
personal accomplishment from the work done.
The other strong area for the company was its employees belief that managers
genuinely cared about their professional and personal growth. Tavant believes
that for the growth of an organization, the professional and personal growth of
an employee is the key factor. And, with an employee strength of around 550, the
management was able to give attention to the problems of employees at an
individual level.
The company follows a fun-at-work model and lays stress on fulfilling the
interests of employees, whether it is the in-house band team, or Synergy, the
annual sports Olympics organized to showcase talent. A forum called M-team was
formed to consider various issues and provide feedback to the management for
creating employee-friendly policies.

But one pain-area for employees is the training offered by the company.
According to the management, the reason for ranking low in this area was because
of the business crisis that Tavant went through. During this period a majority
of its employees were on the bench, and training didnt really have any
relevance for the company.
