Its entirely depends on the team how your work life is. For me the team is superb. So I am having a good work life balance.

Dislikes

Salary hike and bonus are too low. And this year they have cut many benefits that the employees offered earlier like cab facility, mobile allowance, reward points etc

Salary on time

Dislikes

-- No promotion opportunities. - Don’t understand onsite challenges. - Unreasonable, unlimited, and unrealistic expectations. - Vulnerability to contract termination. - Poor communication with clients by managers, which ultimately pressures employees to meet unreasonable client demands. - Unnecessary IT compliance; the laptop is more of a liability than a facility. - No activities or wellbeing programs for employees working on client sites. - Consulting at client sites feels like a glorified clerk job. - As per my view, there are hardly any visionaries in the organization. Even higher management primarily talks about business and money without considering the impact on the team, the project, and the client. - Besides money, if the firm thought a bit more about impact and wellbeing, outsourcing could become true consulting.

... related policy like leaves ad priorities for onsite compare with FTE candidate. And main thing your salary will not directly come from Infosys, it's come from your third party payroll company.

Dislikes

If project gone, you will also gone from company with in 2 days. So this is the most dangerous part of 3rd party payroll.

...dedicated team within the projects ( even projects as large as with 300 people). Quarterly bonus is almost certain to be zero at 12+ yr experience levels. Old school mentality still exists in TCS, where wearing Jeans is a crime on weekdays. Male employees still do not get official paternity leave ( when needed they apply other available leaves)

Dislikes

...rs are like arrogant bosses, they cannot toleryone word against their decisions. Quarterly bonus is virtually non existent at 13+ yr experience levels
