Pros

- The 'Infosys' brand value in India. - The infrastructure is impressive and has world class facilities - Very strong delivery structure, but not directly useful for MBAs

Cons

- MBAs are treated like senior Programmer Analysts. - No technology focus. Very few technically proficient colleagues to look up to. - Very annoying recent HR policies like enforcing the minimum working hours of 9.25 hours. This has severely affected employee morale - Claims to be very open, but ignores feedback. The only redeeming quality of this organization was its openness, now its very top-down in policy making - New recruits are very incompetent. The recruitment process has deteriorated. Senior folks will need to break their heads to 'mentor' them - Commuting to any of their offices takes atleast 1-2 hours - Frequent transfers and no accommodation facilities beyond 1 week. - Low compensation

Pros

Legitimate source of gainful project-based tech employment. Handles the headaches of looking for tech work and verifying your talent & legitimacy as a professional in the field, which is especially valuable in the age of AI. Additionally, they offer internal training resources to help ensure your skills are up to date with the current tech landscape.

Cons

Pay can be significantly lower than might be expected for tech work at higher levels, as their business model is as a staffing company, garnishing part of the wage paid by project clients as part of your employment. It's definitely very livable payment in most places, but it doesn't approach senior or even mid-level pay offered by many other US-operating employers in the tech space. This company has also been operating on slow or outdated systems, which can be frustrating for the remote contact of many of its employees, but Infosys has been actively updating these systems over time. Additionally, work conditions will be set at the behest of clients. Infosys is your pipeline to client projects, not often the host of projects themselves, so working conditions & expectations can vary by client.
