Pros

Good transport - Infy offers possibly the best transport in whole of Bangalore. Onsite - Good chances of onsite. Their salary is also the best.

Cons

Offshore work is demanding. Some HR policies are illogical. Clocking 9.15 hours daily is mandatory, irrespective of whether you have work or not. Time between successive role changes is very long. Very tough to move from one role to the next.
