Infosys reviews

You just get stuck and bound by the policies, not at all employee centric, they have no strategy as to how to use the enormous talent that is lying dormant in the company.

The unrealistic number of processes is exactly what stifles creativity in this company. Even though the training given is top-class, the educators leave a lot to be desired. They are mostly people who join the unit as a stopover on their way to getting their choice of posting location. Don't even get me started on the promotions and onsite opportunities. This company is no different from government service in that the only thing which makes us eligible is basically our experience in the company. Certifications are made mandatory failing which we do not get promoted. Visas will be initiated many times over and rejected as well till the time you threaten to quit, at which time, magically, you finally get your golden ticket. Laterals with lesser experience than you will easily get more money than you. The company DOES NOT reward people who stay committed to it. Once you're around 4 years in the company, the variable pay kicks in, and god forbid if the company is not doing too well at that time. I have personally witnessed people who practically fell over themselves licking the floor their managers walked and finally getting visas, transfers and promotions as requested; and deserving, hardworking people stay at the same position year after year. Oh, and in case all of you did not know this yet - the normal employee did not get any salary hike in 2011-12, but the senior management had no such qualms about rewarding themselves many times over. You thought Indian politicians were corrupt? Pop into Infosys Limited and be amazed!
