Pros

Good Infrastructure.Good training for Freshers, if you are from non IT background and want to make a career out of IT. But after staying for a year or so, it becomes very frustrating as their policies start to haunt and torture you.

Cons

I personally had very bad experience as my manager tortured me at Infosys. But since it is a big company, joining a fresh project is like working in an altogether new company. So the work environment depends on the project. If you join there, Be very selective and ask project team members ,and enquire thoroughly, before joining any project.If they force you to join, then leave Infosys.
