“After a decade of operations in the Philippines under the TELUS brand, creating thousands of jobs and contributing significantly to the local economy, we are now doing even more by expanding our business further with the opening of TELUS House McKinley Exchange in Makati City,” says TELUS International President Jeffrey Puritt.
TELUS’ new McKinley site will welcome more than 2,500 new employees, offering inspiring work spaces for team members, like themed interview and conference rooms, collaboration areas, training rooms, huddle areas, game rooms, a cafeteria, fitness gym, as well as a TELUS International University library.
