Our senior leadership has extensive and positive experience in setting up offices and technology centres in India. It is this, combined with the proportion of high quality technology talent, experienced in the skills we are seeking that led us to choose Hyderabad. We look forward to growing the center further ...
... and expanding its role in Tide’s global strategy.”
