Pros

Best Infrastructure you will ever find in an IT company in India.Good 'parks', lawns, food-courts,Gym,Swimming Pool,Dorm-nice cubicles-very friendly atmosphere inside the company-feels like a College Campus.Work Pressure depends on Project-though usually it is less.Few Good Managers who still follow Good Old Infosys values.

Cons

Most People are very average in intellectual ability.Most importantly, this company has zero respect for good technical brains-who are left at the mercy of their managers.Promotions are mainly based on years of experience.Some of the wierdest policies you will ever come accross are implemented by HR .Good brains usually leave this company in 1-2 years, after they see such non-sense going around at work .
