"Wipro continues to meet the challenges of the changing world of work across Americas, while working tirelessly to make a positive impact on the lives of their workforce. We are pleased to celebrate and applaud the organizations that have been certified as Top Employers this year."

We are committed to building a rich culture that empowers our employees to realize their full potential. Whether it's through our ongoing learning and training programs, or through new opportunities that allow them to expand their expertise and grow professionally, we are fully committed to building a workforce that powers our organizational success. This recognition underscores all the progress we've made so far in that regard."

Angan Guha, CEO, Americas 2, Wipro Limited added, "Our culture and people are the foundation for client success and this certification recognizes significant investments made towards creating one of the most desirable workplaces. We strive to offer employees more than a job and believe excellence is not a destination but a journey. From continuously improving employee experience, to creating new growth opportunities, and strengthening diversity and inclusion, Wipro is an outstanding organization for graduates to start a career and experienced professionals to realize their full potential."
