Pros

Lots of free time. Lunch time in excess of two hours. Flexible timings in coming to work and leaving. Opportunity to work abroad (in the states or Europe ) and getting paid a fair salary in those countries.

Cons

Very poor salary. Total incompetence at the managerial level. You can come to work as and when you like it and no action can ever be taken against you. Trifles are severely punished and can even be career breaking whereas serious faults are passed off with a shrug and a don't care attitude. It is also very surprising how higher management is finally never responsible of anything. Basically the bottom line is not with them. Serious work is not rewarded and only the number of years spent in the company determines the salary and not performance as is put forward by the company. Excessive bureaucracy leads to the reimbursements of business expenses being made late -very late (years after having been incurred!!!).

Pros

Its very process oriented. The value system is something which is worth admiring. The training facility and system is at par if not the best among the top blue chip firms. They do some really good work in particular domains. Though it is difficult to get into good projects, but once into a good project, there is no looking back. The processes followed in different practices makes one realize the value of quality of work. In terms of fairness of opportunities in terms of appraisals and other ancillary items, it gets a fair share of appreciation. Overall a decent place to work for.

Cons

Due its bulk recruiting processes, its very difficult to get noticed at the workplace!!! The process is marred by favouritism in terms of projects and onsite opportunities. Performance is not as important as the number of years you have worked in the company. There are some really incompetent people working at key posts ( Which i believe is a case with every big firm). At times the policies could be a deterrent to performing well at work. If you expect challenges everyday at work, then INfy is certeinly not the place for you. Opportunities for growth in a short time are very much limited.

Pros

Excellent training for Non Computer Science people. 4 months especially in Mysore will be one of the best 4 months of your life. It has a good campus culture and excellent work atmosphere. Excellent facilities like fitness center, swimming pool on campus.

Cons

Overcrowded. The company is hiring in thousands and it is easy to get lost in the crowd. Long bench periods (They seem good in the first few days, but can be frustrating for longer durations). Since they are hiring a lot, co-worker competence has gone down drastically. After training in one particular technology, they may put you to work in a completely different technology.
