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

Legitimate source of gainful project-based tech employment. Handles the headaches of looking for tech work and verifying your talent & legitimacy as a professional in the field, which is especially valuable in the age of AI. Additionally, they offer internal training resources to help ensure your skills are up to date with the current tech landscape.

Cons

Pay can be significantly lower than might be expected for tech work at higher levels, as their business model is as a staffing company, garnishing part of the wage paid by project clients as part of your employment. It's definitely very livable payment in most places, but it doesn't approach senior or even mid-level pay offered by many other US-operating employers in the tech space. This company has also been operating on slow or outdated systems, which can be frustrating for the remote contact of many of its employees, but Infosys has been actively updating these systems over time. Additionally, work conditions will be set at the behest of clients. Infosys is your pipeline to client projects, not often the host of projects themselves, so working conditions & expectations can vary by client.
