Hi Initially these BPOs and KPOs were situated in metropoliton cities and minimum salary was anything between 13k-15k (for freshers). But now as US economy is facing recession, these BPOs and KPOs are getting less job and payment from US based Companies. As a consequence, they are relocating into small cities and in drastic bid to reduce the cost and survive, they are paying lower salary. Certainly it's not fair but considering the global economic conditions, these are forced to do this. In fact, if US economy doesn't revive really very soon, one day these BPOs and KPOs will simply vanish.
