Pros

People at the right place at the right time have a lot to benefit from a company like Infosys. Despite the random placement of recruits, IF you are lucky, Infosys has the best to offer in terms of technology, management and work experience abroad. There have never been any hurdles for an individual's quest for knowledge.

Cons

The only way you can expect to grow in this organization is by the kind of rapport you hold with your managers. Do not expect your work to do the talking for you. The appraisal system is so flawed that the senior management has been empowered to an extent where in they can judge someone's work based on their personal bias.
