Infosys Consulting Principal salaries in Kolkata (Updated 2025)

Likes

Good work-life balance and security. There is no hustle culture unlike other consulting firms which makes stress on the lower side.

Dislikes

Many. - Salary, Perks and benefits. Even though they may hire at a premium, the salary growth is negligible afterwards, even zero y-o-y at times. - CEO seems to have no handle on the culture and systems of the organization, it is largely driven by larger Infosys corporate

Likes

Team, experienced leads,

Dislikes

Bad hike, delayed promotion, HR is only namesake. They give variable in name of bonus ( which also delayed and mostly 70-90%) They just have policies to not give money to employees, like if you are on notice period they won't give the bonus payout even if you resigned after that period (for which bonus/variable is given)

Likes

Work life balance is good, no work pressure, most days you only work 4-5 hours without stress

Dislikes

No skill development, lack of good projects, salary structure is badly designed, appraisals are bad, promotions are delayed

Likes

It is a management consulting vertical of Infosys, however the work here has the elements of both, strategy and implementation consulting. Good work life balance, plenty of learning opportunities, and approachable leadership!

Dislikes

Compensation and benefits could be improved. Promotions could be made faster. More travel opportunities could be provided.

Likes

Only thing good is Hybrid work culture. They are not forcing to come to office compulsory, just asking to come once a week or atleast 3-4 times a month.

Dislikes

Rest everything is bad here. No hikes, no bonus or very less bonus ( bonus is part of CTC promised), they expect you to work on many extra activities apart from clients work to be eligible for appraisal. No support and only support they give is to few favorite employees.
