Infosys Consulting Principal Consultant salaries in India (Updated 2025)

Likes

Work life balance, Good people, structured organisation with overall good employee policies, lot of internal platforms/sponsorship for learning

Dislikes

Salary is below market standard; You get hired at 10 and stay for 3 years, your salary goes 10.3 with a promotion while someone gets laterally hired at 15 or 20 so it’s kind of frustrating. Promotions are extremely slow and now they handover dry promotion with a hike of 5% which results in actually reduction in salary than increase.

.... I surprisingly got good package in Infosys, which is mostly unlikely for most. Salary and other stuffs depends on your boss. If you jumped from a small company to Infosys its great spend sometime there learn and make a change may be after 1-2 year, Mostly recommended for ones around 30s.

Dislikes

People from south will like ones belonging from their region. Lots of protocols to follow. I dislike most the entry and exit and checking in gates. My perspective has slightly changed from worse to better in infosys. Though its 6-7 month and i have worked here before. Lets see how the progress goes on.

If you are lucky the project work will be interesting and you will get to do some meaningful work.

Dislikes

No growth in any aspect. No hikes, no promotions and bonus is never as expected. Performance evaluation will be done every 6 months but hikes and bonus will be delayed by 10-12 months. Bonus cycle is such that if you quit the job, you will loose your bonus for that year.
