Pros

Good opportunity to understand the offshore process for IT development projects and BPO There are many chances to work with the best and brightest people from all over the world. Travelling onsite is another great chance to see the world and also experience first hand, what it is like to work for other 1st rate companies as well. The facilities in India are truly amazing to see. Many of the buildings are replicas of famous buildings from all over the world. The average salary for Infosys rates up there with the best of them and company bonuses are usually very rewarding as well.

Cons

Employees are treated as just another number Process oriented in concept but reality is, it is very people dependent. the salaries for an offshore person travelling to onsite can be very rewarding, but for foreigners, the benefits are very minimal. Benefits such as insurance coverage, health club membership, transportation costs, etc., are things which the company does not provide any subsidation for when working at client location. I have worked for a few years and found that it can be extremely difficult to get a promotion just based on your performance alone. If you are fortunate to be in a team which has a lot of return on investment, that in itself, will most likely get you promoted.

Pros

If you're in Consulting it is a bit alright as you might get to travel a fair bit within the US and Europe. Possible even India. If you're working in India, the company has sprawling campuses for employees to work in. The campuses have a wide range of facilities from gyms to squash courts and even a cricket pitch in some places.

Cons

When you join as a software engineer you are worked way too hard and not paid any overtime benefits either. On the other hand you could be placed on 'bench' i.e a reserve resource for the company and do nothing with your time. This can get very frustrating as i have personally been on bench for a while and trying to get my managers to give me some work to do but in vain. Now i understand that some people might be thinking this would be the ideal job of getting paid and not doing much work but trust me, you dont want to be sitting out there at the start of your career and wasting time away waiting to be given work!
