Pros

There are many excellent opportunities available in terms of variety of projects and client interaction.

Cons

It's very difficult to get on a project unless you have networked with senior staff which is pretty much impossible at a junior level. Promotions are rarely issued, the company prefers to hire employees from other organisations to fill these roles meaning there is no incentive for existing employees to give 110%. The appraisal cycle does not reward achivement but rather focusses on number of years in the company and how much your manager likes you - if you don't work with your manager (which is common) then you have no chance of promotion. The training at Infosys is non-existant. You are forced to do mandatory exams every year - failure of which will result in no promotion. No training is provided to pass these exams, you have to rely on your ability to read through a powerpoint presentation and remember what was in it. These exams do not represent skill but your ability to remember word for word paragraphs in presentations.

Reaching Out To Employees Seems An Eyewash Sometimes 4. Favouratism For Onshore Opportunities 5. Apetite For Growth Seems Low In Domestic Markets 6.

Pros

One reason that most infy employees will agree with me is here, is its brand name. Which I think has started to fade in the recent days. It's a company of good ethics and values. The infrastructure and the effort taken for the maintenance is really amazing.

Cons

There's a good ambience to sit and work here, but not to grow. While ET and other major financial experts report infy's growth in revenue quarter by quarter, sal hikes and promotions dont reflect that. Very poor in employee care when compared to similar employees. The people working in out of the city development centers will strongly approve my opinion on this, the travel costs and appalling penalties being the reason. It has turned out to be, a normal, yet another IT company with its own politics and dissatsified employees whose number is recently increasing. Recommended only for laterals that too only for managerial roles.
