LIFE @ INFOSYS

( via Ex-Infosys, Employee -Aadhith )

Training

In my opinion, if you are a fresher, I would chose Infosys over any other competitor, just because of the training in the Mysore campus.

The training is not a replacement for programming education. But no other organization puts in this much resources to train its new employees.

Project Assignment

This is where Infosys falters. Once you are out of training, and you have to join projects, the assignment to projects was very arbitrary. I got a perfect score in training and was assigned to a challenging, interesting project. But some trainees from my batch, who also got perfect scores, ended up installing JDK, doing tech support for clients. To be fair, it was 2008, right after the biggest economic downturn. So I guess they thought it is better to have the trainees doing something rather than nothing.

Once you are no longer a fresher, the projects that you can get into are entirely up to your technical competence, your manager, your political ability etc.

Certification

I guess this is something I may receive a lot of flak for. Till the time I was with Infosys, it required it employees to go through mandatory certifications based on their levels. So the idea was, if you were a Java programmer, you will take.

1. Basic Java certification the first year
2. Advanced Java certification the next year
3. Design patterns etc the next year and so on

So as you grow in your career, Infosys certification process will let you learn more. I like it a lot because it was so relevant to learn exactly what you need for the next year of your career. I liked it because it was relevant to my work and I was doing certification on the technology I was working on.

The problem is, Infosys has such a diverse technology and project portfolio, that certification did not make sense for some employees. It did not make sense for someone working in SQL to have certification on .NET.

The Fun

This is now entirely up to you and your team. Our team was a bunch of 21 year olds. So even though we had a lot of work, we did have parties and enjoyed a lot. There was almost no politics.

I would say, overall Infosys is a good company among its competitors. I would pick Infosys over other IT consulting companies. But I would not choose Infosys over software companies like Amazon, eBay etc...
