Pros

1. Good Campus 2. Good brand image 3. Good media management...even if company gives a 2% hike it makes it to the news.

Cons

At the time i joined there were 7000 employees and It was a good place to work for. Over last 10 years, infosys has gone from bad to worse and in the recent recession it became unbearable. Some of the worst things noticed here are: 1. Bad politics...if you don't have a Godfather, be ready to be screwed. Without a Godfather, there is no recognition of talent anymore when company is >100000 employees 2. Some of the worst policies in the industry. Whats with forcing people to clock 9.15 hrs when they are on bench. 3. Cost cutting to ridiculous extents. Company relocates you to different places in US and then finance dept doesn't want to pay you for lease breakage and other stuff under some pretext or other. 4. Worst Salaries compared to the market 5. No growth for individuals. 6. An environment that instills constant fear in the minds of people specially at US in the name of operation independence and what not. There are so many other bad things that i can write but am ending the review here because i am feeling shameful of myself of having been a part of this organization for 10 painful years and still not able to find a job in the current US market. Please pray for me so that i can move on from this organization asap.

Pros

Good Top Management Good Campus, Food and Transport facilites

Cons

In the name variable pay company is kind of cheating employees. Because formula for variable pay is not transparent. Employees will loose 25% of your salary in average despite good performance. 25% to 60% of your Gross Salary offered will be Variable. Stress due to relative ranking in appraisal process. Every year its kind of IIT score. Every year you have to do 2 certifications despite continous slogging throughout the year.

Pros

Initially the role was my stint into tech, and I thought it was a good opportunity to keep learning as they prioritize upskilling with their internal courses. Also, at the time we could still work from home.

Cons

Since it’s such a huge company that is mainly managed by home based staff in India who transfer to the US to train US based employees there’s not only a cultural shift that needs to be assimilated to, but also a communication shift that was very difficult for most of us to adjust to. Communication in general was lacking and delayed across the board from HR department to management. Whenever we had to complete an assessment, there would be issues with the internal portal, and we would need to contact IT support constantly. The worse thing about working here is that we found out that we were responsible for getting on projects instead of being put on a project. Essentially, you signed on only to be “job hunting” again. Please negotiate your salary accordingly before signing because they will low ball as much as they can. I ended up having to pay taxes for another state unnecessarily on top of being paid way under market rate.
