Likes

There are alot learning opportunities for freshers as well as laterals. Good culture and Supportive Colleagues again depends on project to project I got really good team, sometime there is a lot work load but you will definitely learn every day.

Dislikes

... bad. I was working as an SAP FICO Consultant but salary is really too much low. HR will never listen to you if you want an salary hike even if you have really good reviews from managers and client, they will just show you policy of promotions and appraisal. Progression is not given till the time you chase your manager and HR, and due to this promotion gets delayed.

I found Work life balance here as they have flexible work hours and as my first company it will always hold best place in my heart but if we talk about culture it has a employee friendly hybrid culture which makes it easy to work in any situations.

Dislikes

Salary hikes/ appraisals rates are very low here and after sometime my growth is becoming stagnant now.

Great Company with numerous projects, scope of learning depends on your interest. Big Campus, Food Courts, Tennis Court, Cricket ground and all that required for your health and FUN. - > Many Projects -> Flexible work hours( Depends on Project) -> Company encourages Good WLB( Depends on Project like in all other companies.)

Dislikes

Difference in Salary mentioned in Offer Letter vs Salary you get as Take Home. Only 50% of Salary you get as Take Home to what is mentioned in Offer.

->Job Security ->Good Infrastructure ->Learning opportunities (might vary for each person depending on the project) and global presence

Dislikes

->Low Salary and subpar appraisal system (very less hike even if you get the best possible rating) ->Poor Management and bureaucracy ->Mandating WFO even when, there isn't a requirement from client and entire team works from different locations within country (favoritism can occur, some resources might be granted permission to WFH)

1. Unlimited opportunities to switch skill when u want to upskill or cross skill. 2. Work from Home (9 days a month) is a company policy for us even before Covid. 3. Work from office (through swipes) can be also be managed through something called "On-duty". So by using 2 & 3 we can almost avoid the campus hours. 4. Trainings are good and they push u towards upskilling. 5. Campus - u dont feel like u r in office. Hyd STP campus makes u feel relaxed as if u r in a park once u come out of your building. 6. Most importantly JOB SECURITY.

Dislikes

...i, they will give you water bottle etc. etc which gets u the feeling of YUCK. They will ask u to be part of recruitment process for an entire day during weekend WITHOUT ANY PAY. 2. They dont pay you with market standards. 3. VERY LESS HIKES - Even if you have an extraordinary profile and got a CTC in par with market standards during joining, u will be left far behind from market standards of "Experience to CTC" quotient after few years inside. 4. THIS IS REALLY INTERESTING - When I was the best performer consecutively for 2 years and when the client VICE PRESIDENT by himself shouted loud that this guy is extraordinary they gave me a gift voucher of 500 Rs. That time i got 2% hike after which i had to fight like bull to get what i deserve. 5. Whatever they do, directly/indirectly benefits Infosys but not the employee. 6. You need to be a MARK ZUCKERBURG / STEEVE JOBS for you to get an OUTSTANDING (1+) rating. ( Being best in ur technical capacities to resolve any kind of complex issue, which 99.9% people were not good at in IT industry, will just give you MET EXPECTATIONS (2) rating. U r expected to give service improvement ideas to client and upskill urself every year along with certifications & skill tags. Even that will give you only 1 (Commendable) rating. 7. They dont care to stop even the best of the best techies from moving out. I mean they may ask u but wont offer the same package what u have in hand. THAT IS WHY IT IS IN SECOND PLACE IN THE LIST OF COMPANIES WITH HIGHEST ATTRITION RATE.
