Infosys is a top-tier offshore contracting company. I’ve used them extensively in my career. As with all offshore teams, they will only be as effective as the onshore tech lead/coordinator. Infosys has a deep bench of talent and is one of the few SIs I know that can assemble huge teams on short notice for a reasonable price.
Despite popular opinion on the FR site, I can say *without reservation* that offshore resources play an important role in US IT companies. As an IT executive, I’ve hired dozens of American resources and utilized offshore talent as well. Frankly, many young American programmers these days think they are God’s gift to programming, but can’t tell you anything about design patterns.
Every company has the responsibility to find the best talent. I typically view 2-3 offshore resources as equivalent to *one* good domestic resource. Sometimes finding decent domestic resources is a challenge. The IT unemployment rate in Charlotte, NC for example is only about 1%. At $24/hr, however, sometimes it just makes sense to use offshore on certain projects where you can spend months and months and only find marginal domestic resources which cost you $85/hr.
