India's top outsourcing firms plan to reduce the amount of work performed onsite by their staff travelling on temporary visas in the US, as they battle increased immigration scrutiny and push harder to increase profitability by shipping more work offshore.
At least three CEOs at the country's top 10 technology firms confirmed they plan to reduce onsite work by up to 5% over next year and handle traditional onsite projects such as managing takeover of an existing outsourcing contract among other activities through videoconferencing.
