Pros

Infosys is one India based IT service companies. Therefore, IC is capable of getting in front of key industry leaders.

Cons

Very critical, political, non-communicative, non-supportive work environment that fosters a frustrating, negative corporate culture. The incentives in the company drive everyone to mediocrity, not excellence. This is not a mgt consulting company but rather all technology focused (do not get caught up in the sales rhetoric). Clients will never view Infosys as a management consulting company but rather an outsourcing organization. Therefore, Infosys Consulting competes against the parent company for technology consulting deals and there lies the problem. The consulting arm will never win and thus it becomes the sales force for the larger company but does not get the sales credit. If you were born outside of the US or previously worked at Deloitte you stand a much better chance of success. You are expected to work at any given moment, day or night, and the benefits aren't very good, or very bad (healthcare). The review process is incredibly subjective - they make it sound objective on paper but in the end it comes down to who the partners want to reward or those people who have sucked up to the partners. A lot of good people have left or are looking to leave.

Pros

2 at-home days per week

Cons

Mandatory office time even when entire team is halfway across the country. Lack of upwards mobility. Constant pressure to inject generative AI into tasks that it can’t or shouldn’t do. Small increases in pay occur only once every 2-3 years.
