I think you are painting with a broad brush here rubbishing the entire company. > no growth I've known people grow within Infosys just like any other big company > they pay you peanuts and earn millions Not sure which offices you are referring to - India or US. In India at least, they are at par with peers engaged in the same Services model. > They treat you like shit Subjective. Depending on what you expected and what you got in return. > You'll be just another fish in the sea. This I agree. But, that's just like any other big corporate company unless you know how to navigate your way out in the maze. > no much work for you to do Again subjective. I have come across people who complain of too much work. The better alternative will be to join a product company if the OP has an option, rather than a services company, as other comments suggest. Any Services company operates predominantly on a head count / person hours model as against a product company or a product based start up which have completely different dynamics.

> Subjective. Depending on what you expected and what you got in return So if I go into a company expecting to be treated like shit, it's all good then?

  I don't get this argument. Why would anybody go into a company expecting to be treated like shit? Stay away, if you know in advance. To be clear, what I meant was - if you walk into a services based company with the expectation of working in a niche or a good product building experience, you may be disappointed. Peoples' expectation on the work they get and what it turns out to be (the project you are assigned etc.,) might make them feel like they are treated like shit. If on any other ground (HR grounds, facilities, equality etc.,), they treat people like shit, then it's no more subjective, but subject to law of the land and corporate laws.
