Pros

Initially the role was my stint into tech, and I thought it was a good opportunity to keep learning as they prioritize upskilling with their internal courses. Also, at the time we could still work from home.

Cons

Since it’s such a huge company that is mainly managed by home based staff in India who transfer to the US to train US based employees there’s not only a cultural shift that needs to be assimilated to, but also a communication shift that was very difficult for most of us to adjust to. Communication in general was lacking and delayed across the board from HR department to management. Whenever we had to complete an assessment, there would be issues with the internal portal, and we would need to contact IT support constantly. The worse thing about working here is that we found out that we were responsible for getting on projects instead of being put on a project. Essentially, you signed on only to be “job hunting” again. Please negotiate your salary accordingly before signing because they will low ball as much as they can. I ended up having to pay taxes for another state unnecessarily on top of being paid way under market rate.

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 This company has also been operating on slow or outdated systems, which can be frustrating for the remote contact of many of its employees, but Infosys has been actively updating these systems over time.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.
