Pros

Hiring process was pretty quick and smooth. most of the system were automated.

Cons

Since I was hired I am on bench I am not sure why I was hired. Its been more than 2 months and I am staying at home. I confused how bench is handled here and I am not sure where my project will be and when will it starts. I am a full time Infosys employee staying at home since my first day. I personally don't know any one inside the infosys. I get couples of calls each day. Its like I just got a job and I am still searching a job. I just passed my interview and I have to give interviews again. It's really frustrating.

Pros

Some employees are genuinely hardworking and dedicated, while others seem to get by primarily on their networking and communication skills rather than the quality of their work. Career growth often appears to depend more on office politics than on performance. If you're good at building the right relationships and navigating internal politics, you'll likely do well here.

Cons

If you're not someone who focuses on pleasing the right people, don't expect a healthy work-life balance, meaningful pay hikes, or fair promotion opportunities. Recognition and career growth often seem to depend more on favoritism than on performance.
