- 2.0Dec 3, 2023Principal ConsultantCurrent Employee, more than 10 yearsNew York, NY
Pros
Competitive salary and benefits. Wonderful co-workers below the Director levels. Opportunity to work with every type of technology out there.
Cons
The company failed to meet its potential since going private and then public again. The current CEO has not had much success. Great person but he’s changed. The CFO brought in had a reputation for cutting to raise the stock price and is doing the same here. Both the CFO and CEO have their million shares, so they see the cuts in a positive light as the stock rises. They’re just disconnected. Can’t blame ‘em. Blinded by money. As others have said, the cuts weren’t based on performance. That makes it worse for employees, with no one secure in their job. The technical debt is too high with the legacy software and the plans for on-prem to cloud for many products simply aren’t there.

Pros
Decent MNC with a satisfactory work culture. You will get exposure in terms of offsites which are usually outside India. Work life balance is there.
Cons
Compensation is on the extreme lower side. Surprisingly, the people who have been hired in 2023 in the Legal shared services team in India have received almost the same level of entry salary which a person got in the year 2017.It is a shared services team which has been formed in India to do the supporting work for the legal teams based out in other countries, hence the growth and work is bad. Team quality is also not up to the mark since anyone can do that work as there is no application of mind. Further, the higher management will throw any non legal projects (para legal type work) for the shared services to do and you are forced to work upon them since they do not want to hire para legals in the team. Hence, the major issue is related to work, slow growth and salary which are the main components of a job. If someone is a fresher, looking to have an MNC name in the resume, then one should join Informatica but if you are planning to build a career, then that is not possible over here.
2 - 3.0Nov 14, 2023Sr ConsultantCurrent Employee, more than 3 years
Pros
If you find the right people they will be lifelong friends. Experience with Informatica Products
Cons
First off leadership has expressed interest in ending internal Consulting, so this is a limited adventure. You are expected to find your own work. Training and (non-billable) hours are watched closely. Training courses you log will be audited, you can be tested on courses you take, and are only allowed the EXACT hours they say it should take you.

- 3.0Nov 17, 2023Anonymous EmployeeFormer Employee, more than 3 years
Pros
Good work culture. Nice employees to work with. Good work. You will be constantly challenged. Good pay, on par with industry. Open communication by higher management.
Cons
Cloud transformation seems to be taking it's toll. Hired a lot of employees in last 2-3 yrs and have fired close to 1000 employees in 2023 calendar year. The recent events have brought down employee morale considerably and damaged the credibility and reputation of Informatica.
