Pros

- The 'Infosys' brand value in India. - The infrastructure is impressive and has world class facilities - Very strong delivery structure, but not directly useful for MBAs

Cons

- MBAs are treated like senior Programmer Analysts. - No technology focus. Very few technically proficient colleagues to look up to. - Very annoying recent HR policies like enforcing the minimum working hours of 9.25 hours. This has severely affected employee morale - Claims to be very open, but ignores feedback. The only redeeming quality of this organization was its openness, now its very top-down in policy making - New recruits are very incompetent. The recruitment process has deteriorated. Senior folks will need to break their heads to 'mentor' them - Commuting to any of their offices takes atleast 1-2 hours - Frequent transfers and no accommodation facilities beyond 1 week. - Low compensation
