Pros

As consultancy firm, Infosys Lodestone offers competitive compensation and good benefits (private healthcare, travel insurance, pension etc). They encourage entrepreneurial spirit, a go getter attitude and a roll your sleeves up and do it yourself. This is not common in the industry where processes are often quite rigid. Other notable pros include: -minimal micro management -scope for progression -diversity of employee base

Cons

The client base is hit and miss, a few very large and interesting projects. More often though the projects are completely unnoticeable in the industry, heavily technical and IT based. Little advice or consultancy is provided. Mostly system implementations. The company's day to day organisation is shambolic. There is no real head office, HR, Finance and all back offices functions are under resourced having a direct negative impact on employees. Integration with Infosys (the mother company) causes constant logistical nightmares. Senior management is uninspiring, demotivated and under qualified as people managers (although experts in their field). There is almost no training offered and the company has no interest in making its employee grow, creating a brand image or sense of community Very negative atmosphere, high turnover and only tepid attempts to address issues.

Pros

Legitimate source of gainful project-based tech employment. Handles the headaches of looking for tech work and verifying your talent & legitimacy as a professional in the field, which is especially valuable in the age of AI. Additionally, they offer internal training resources to help ensure your skills are up to date with the current tech landscape.

Cons

Pay can be significantly lower than might be expected for tech work at higher levels, as their business model is as a staffing company, garnishing part of the wage paid by project clients as part of your employment. It's definitely very livable payment in most places, but it doesn't approach senior or even mid-level pay offered by many other US-operating employers in the tech space. This company has also been operating on slow or outdated systems, which can be frustrating for the remote contact of many of its employees, but Infosys has been actively updating these systems over time. Additionally, work conditions will be set at the behest of clients. Infosys is your pipeline to client projects, not often the host of projects themselves, so working conditions & expectations can vary by client.
