Pros
Infosys as a company is one of the most respected company in India. Working with Infy has created a brand value for me. Also it has helped me gain international exposure in terms of experience and handling of professional clients. It has helped me develop the insight to various challenges which the IT industry of Developed world country face today. It has expanded my horizons of thinking and instilled an approach within me to handle micro as well as macro level problems and issues.
Cons
Infosys has had an non-linear growth in terms of resources. In my opinion, infy is struggling majorly with people management. The middle layer functioning proves to be a threat to make a professional company look like a government bureaucratic company. Management still believes in seniority, and does not value performance and capability above seniority. The compensation is not upto standards of the IT industry in developed countries. There is no guideline from senior management asto where the company is heading. It feels as if the transperancy for which the company was proud about at one point of time is lost now. The freedom for people to work in their area of intrest is very very limited. Resources are forced to work against their will because of lack of support and opportunities from their management. The middle managers are completely theoritical and process oriented. Infy has made up so many processes that managers are unable to think beyond the box - out of those outlined processes. Processes eat away most of the time with no real value gained. It feels like a employee is completely detached from its management. Also the quality of resources has degraded drastically. Proper allocation of resources is not managed....
