Hi pearl,


I have been workign in Infosys for the past 2 years (so i might be a little biased) .>.....Infy is currently goign great guns and is poised for tremendous growth in the future. Also when you join Infy, its almost like joining a govt organization. Once you are there , hey will move heaven n earth to keep you. The present salary for entrly level fresehsrs is as per industry standards and the benefits start to kick in once you stick beyond 2 years....also depending o nthe project you are in......u can get onsite pretty quickly..........(once again, depending on the project you are in).............these are soem of the benfits...........some cons are also there as in..........some IBUs are pretty worthless to work in.............

i am from HCL, so my opinion is also biased

if they are putting you in the Japan division, then i am presuming that you are joining the NOIDA facility. my advice, join it...its amazing there. i worked in NOIDA for one year, though not in that japanese unit....and now i am in mumbai


Read what I went through to reach IIMC here and continues here

Why does every employee in the Indian top five IT companies say so? HCL is not too different from Infy in that respect

@Pearl: Learning Japanese does not gurantee that you will be sent to Japan, one of my friends was also made to learn Japanese but he never went there...he is in Australia now

Both Infy and HCL are equally good for me...go for the one that suits your long term goal Also, now that you have 2 offers in hand, try to do some bargaining with both

@Amit: Do let me know when u come to Noida
