Infosys Reviews

Pros

Process orientation
Emphasis on quality of the software product
Work-life balance well maintained
Best infrastructure setup for knowledge sharing and management

Cons

Too many levels of management
Weekly working hours linked to leaves which sometimes cannot be achieved, that calculation could have been made more liberal

Advice to Senior Management

Many Infoscions face this problem of getting trained in one technology(say java) and are put into an altogether a different domain(say customer support) that makes them unsatisfied and that becomes a never ending loop for their career. My advice is to make such positions rotational or consider employees who are very well interested and capable of working in complex development projects but are struct with some support/maintenance project , can be moved them into development positions

Pros

good for freshers to join mainly due to its training at Mysore
'OK' salary package
true professional way of working of senior management

Cons

working hours even if you are on bench
few leaves and holidays
