Infosys FAQ

relocation package if you choose company flat option but also this is dependent on how lucky you are with your flatmate

everything that you can think off, low salaries, polish "nested" steering committee, polish leadership (I was the only foreigner part of management in the account alongside 9 polish),is all about cost reduction(at EXTREME), useless facility, HR is there for sanctions not for support, facade bonus scheme, team leaders have no or very little decision power(improvements wise), 3000 Polish workers due to 220 foreigners, little learning possibilities (due to budget & lack of expertise), aged office furniture, impolite building security, HR recommendation bonus scams....

keep in mind that 200 foreigners "feed" the 3000 polish employees.

Nice infrastructure Great learning and development opportunities

Bad sabbatical policy for those who want to return

Create a solid sabbatical and alumni rehire policy

They offer industry standard competitive base salaries, new things to learn and grow. Lot of potential for driving the growth and can be part of growth and success story.

Poor benefits like 401 k, medical and dental benefits. Poor relocation, Per Diem and Travel expenses, it is sometimes a challenge to get reimbursement. We can't compare expense reimburse policies to top technology or services companies like Oracle, IBM, E&Y or Accenture etc. Poor staffing and long hours, life balance is an issue.

Staff projects with right people at right time.

Good maternity and paternity leave. Free short distance bus

Variable pay is high. Far from city.

Initial training is good. It will set you up for a decent career in software industry.

For onsite deputes, Infosys will discontinue employer contribution to India Provident (pension) fund after a limited time, an year or so (and their India pension fund contribution is also very negligible, anyhow). Plus, there is no contribution to 401K or Bonus or ESIP for US deputes. On top of all that, the pay for deputes is also among the industry lowest. Essentially, if you work long term for Infosys at US on deputation, you will end up losing on a lot of fronts - no pension plan, not any decent savings due to low pay, frequent relocations etc. It might be okay for a short term stint, say ~2 years; after that, it’s better to explore better opportunities elsewhere! Company loyalty is fine; but one needs to care of themselves and their family, first. Unfortunately, Infosys doesn’t seem to give a damn about that for their long term, loyal employees!! It’s just numbers and resources for them, take it or leave it! Not much work-life balance either to boot. I worked for 13+ years for this company. After all these years, I don’t have any money saved for retirement; got some peanut amount as Provident Fund and Gratuity. I feel bad I didn’t think much about my retirement. I should have explored for better opportunities 5 years back!!
