Pros

There are no pros about working for Infosys.

Cons

It is exceptionally difficult to make any kind of career advancement within this company. The compensation and benefits are below average. If you are on a salary (which is most employees), you can't receive overtime pay, which allows employers to work you as much as they want without Infosys being required to pay you. The culture is based on saving face - statistics are skewed to give clients the impression that Infosys is doing more than it really is, and the company will readily throw its own employees under the bus to try to appease their clients. Management are barely more than puppets for their clients. The company threatens employees with termination to force them to move to new work locations or to accept new projects, even if the employee has declined. Even human resources has no shred of dignity and only looks out for themselves. Finally, there are very poor prospects of getting hired by the client. Clients almost never take on Infosys employees as full employees. You will be a slave - sorry, contractor - for the rest of your life.

Pros

The co workers were nice.

Cons

Low salary Terrible company politics Made fake promises around h1b filing but had to get exceptions and so much follow up and stuff to get it approved. Most managers dont give a s**** about your well being at all and they dont take your side when you are working with clients. If your client is miserable then your life is also miserable. The HR is also useless and incompetent for the most part. You cant even get screens and other equipments for your work. You need to go through ten rounds of some dumb approvals and what not and then even after that its not guaranteed. All the benefits I got were because I had good relations with my manager but this shouldnt be the case. Every employee should be treated equally.
