Pros

I have been able to learn and practice a lot of things. The projects are very interesting. They motivate the employee to improve his/her skills all the time.

Cons

There is no work-life balance at all, my first meeting is at 6 am and my last one is at 9:30 pm (usually ends at 11 pm) every day Sun-Fri. When they offered me the job one year ago, the normal day to day was going to be 8-5, totally false! The pay is not good enough maybe average. There are a lot of problems related to visas, I have seen more than 30 colleagues leaving US (only in my project) some of them after 10+ years of working experience here as successful software engineers, simply because according with the government they don’t have enough technical experience, so their visas are being cancelled. C’mon! There is definitely something fishing here... Maybe is not the correct time to belong to Infosys as a foreign.

Good learning opportunities – Access to internal learning platforms, certifications, and training programs (especially for freshers). Global exposure – Opportunities to work with international clients and global delivery teams. Structured processes – Well-defined policies, documentation, and governance. Work-life balance (project dependent) – Many teams offer reasonable working hours. Employee benefits – Health insurance, paid leaves, and wellness initiatives. Safe and inclusive workplace – Strong focus on ethics, compliance, and diversity.

Cons

Salary growth can be slow – Compensation increments may be lower compared to market standards. Limited flexibility in role changes – Internal mobility and project switches can take time. Bureaucratic processes – Decision-making can be slow due to multiple approval layers. Project allocation delays – Bench time and delayed onboarding to projects can happen. Variable learning exposure – Skill growth depends heavily on the project assigned. Less innovation in some teams – Certain projects may use legacy technologies. Onsite opportunities are limited – Compared to earlier years, onsite roles are fewer. Performance appraisal transparency – Rating systems may feel rigid or unclear.
