Pros

Struggling to find any pros. One good thing is if you are a recent graduate here you can get some experience granted they find a decent project for you. Get ready to lie. Yes lie! Infosys’s managers will ask you to bump up your experience, even if you have none, just so they could charge clients more for your spot.

Cons

Does not matter how hard you work your work will not be appreciated. Yes you will get a pat on your back but that’s it. Does not matter if you spend extra time after work hours, does not matter if the client is super happy with you and keeps sending emails to Infosys praising your work. None of it matters you will only get your standard 1.5 or 3% increase. Which to most people will be around 1700-1800$ Actually if you do good and client is happy with you Infosys will charge the client more after first 6month and they will keep increasing charge without rewarding you. They typically charge 3 to 4 times of what they pay you. Yes you are reading it right. Infosys will pay you around 30$ per hour BUT will charge clients 90-120$ bucks per hour per one fresher and then at the end of the year they will give you 0.45 cents increase. So instead of 30$ now you are making 30.45$.
