I'm impressed with how they committed to it. I guess they couldn't ignore it, but still, opening an office in India and spending considerable amount of time there when they weren't familiar with the culture at all.

From experience at my firm, I suspect that they are going to commit a whole lot more than the current rotating system they are considering. Setting the culture and attitude of the firm/division will mean they need to be here 24/7 dealing with their recruits and all the randomness that they will encounter. For example, several people who joined our firm later asked for leave, since a family member was drastically ill. Shortly after that they left the firm. There are some major cultural differences they will have to watch out for. For example "Yes I'll do it" often means "I will give it a shot" as opposed to "Yes I will take personal responsibility to get it done.". Building a firm culture that believes this and will stop at nothing to get it done takes a LOT of work.
