    Impact of Global Recession

    The key challenges faced by any industry now are inflation and the psychological impact of the

    US crisis, leading the companies to hit the panic button. Though analysts feel, recession is a

    short-term phenomenon, it still has taken a toll on the industry.

    Les Concierges Services Pvt. Ltd. render their services to many companies. Les Concierges provide companies with happier, more productive employees and better bottom lines. IT firms

    are their major clients. Some of their major clients are IBM, Accenture, Wipro, Del etc. Since

    IT companies were badly affected by the global recession, it has had an impact on the company

    as well.Global recession trends and weak dollar has hit India's Information Technology industry with

    many companies resorting to cost cutting measures. As a part of cost cutting, many companieshave limited the services of the company. There is no more recruitment in companies. It has

    resulted in the decline of certain projects undertaken by this company. For eg, the joining kits

    for new employees, contract workforce etc. were some of the services provided to client

    companies.Bonuses, perks, lavish parties, and many other benefits are missing as companies look to cut

    cost. The companies used to outsource the arrangements of such activities to this company. Now,

    they consider the outsourcing of such tasks as an additional expense. Since appraisal,

    recognition, tours and parties were missing, it has an impact on the company.

    Thus, global recession has a great impact on the company.

    39/43

    There is a centralized Finance and HR department in the company. There are six verticals in the

    company. All these are interconnected to the Human Resources and Finance department.

    The HR department of the corporate office has a dynamic role in the company. It is concerned

    with the recruitment, selection and placement of employees in these verticals. Once the

    employees are selected, they will have to undergo an induction or orientation programme. Then

    they will be trained by the concerned departments for doing specific tasks. For e.g., the employee

    who is appointed at the help desk of the client companies, the front office management team and

    others will be trained for a minimum of two months. The HR department also determines the

    salary, remuneration, and compensations etc for the employees.

    The finance department manages the inflow and outflow of finance. There are different sections

    for the payment and collection of funds. They are also concerned with the payment of the salary

    determined by the HR department.

    Concierge is the main business of Les Concierges Services Pvt. Ltd. All other verticals are linkedto the concierge services. Most of the new deals reach them through the help desk placed in the

    client companies.

    Thus all the departments are interconnected with each other. The interconnectedness is very

    much linked in the core business.

    CHAPTER 6: FINDINGS, SUGGESTIONS& CONCLUSION

    41/43

    6.1 FINDINGS

    LesConcierges has such a wide range of services that they donot have any competitors as

    such. They have a market share of 99.6% in India and a global estimate over 75%.

    They have a wide global network. The companies they serve comes over 500, cities they

    operate is 13 and the employees they empower comes about 5, 00,000 and growing.

    They do not have a centralized marketing department for their promotional activities.

    The reporting system is not structured.

    As the IT companies perform well, the demand for their services also increases.

    Less employee satisfaction results in absenteeism and turn over.

    Lack of offices in remote locations.

    Most of the decisions were taken by the director and so there is always a delay in

    decisions.

    6.2 SUGGESTIONS

    A centralized marketing department should be set up which helps in expanding its

    services.

    The reporting system should be revised. The span of control has to be improved.

    They should focus on different target segments so that any fluctuation in one department

    will not affect them directly.
