Must travel. Time to get within a project may take weeks to months. I was taken out of a project when I started my 2 week vacation and placed on bench for months. Basically when on bench you must seek and accept any project available from any client. I accepted many projects but allocated to different clients multiple times. My past project manager was disrespectful, liked to gas light his employees, and enforces his own political views on others. Infosys likes to use their own virtual environment when completing certificates online which is much slower and tends to freeze. Worst part for me was being placed in roles not related to my experience or technical background. Employees with a high title in Illinois need to complete English courses online, which was odd and time consuming. English is my 1st language and my time could be spent elsewhere. A bachelors is required so they should assume English is known in the U.S. I would like to add that there will be plenty of spam mail and phone calls for projects. When scheduled for an interview with a client, they will not give you a date or time. Once I was called for an interview on a weekend while I was shopping. Prepare to work nights with no overtime with the offshore team. I also want to add that during this pandemic, my PM made jokes of the situation and I was ridiculed for wearing PPE in the office. Infosys also claims that you have work from home hours but that is only if your PM approves. It is unlikely because the clients prefer you to be there in person.
