Pros

• A lot of learning opportunities • The chance to work with big name companies • Interview practice

Cons

• Communication sucks. You will be asked for the same document by 4 different people who are all trying to put that file in the same spot. Trying to get help with something is like pulling teeth. • Certifications are bull crap. They don’t mean anything outside of Infy. You're expected to complete a certification every two weeks while not on project. • Put on random projects in random positions that have nothing to do with your skill set. You'll be a Java developer put on a QA role, or a frontend developer put in a dbms role. It doesn't make sense. • Will be told to relocate to client location and then once relocated will be told you're off the project actually so you will not be reimbursed for your relocation. Saw this happen to many of the people I onboarded with. • Out of the 50 people I onboarded with, less than 15 were still employed here a year later, and now less than 8 remain (two years later). Maybe this should be a pro instead.
