When Ondoy and Sendong hit Manila in the past, their operations got affected. The operations in Manila was shut down while Cebu operations just went on like a normal day which is something that their clients really appreciated. The clients favored their opening a third center in Cebu which will focus on operating systems an d home entertainment consoles. They provide supports from the customer service, sales to technical support in the facility.
They are positioning to be at the northernmost part of Cebu capturing the manpower in Northern Cities and towns like Mandaue and Mactan. Cebu has the lowest attrition rates with most of their employees in Cebu actually pursuing a career in their company based on the operation in the last decade. They we’re confident that they can grow and slowly exit out of Manila which is now very congested.
