After 6 months as an associate, it comes as no surprise that Infosys Canada has been bestowed with the title of Great Place To Work. Driven by a culture of continuous learning and creative application of that knowledge, the honor truly echoes my feelings.
When I first attended the Infosys Career Readiness Workshop during my last semester at Concordia University, the thing that stood out most was the philosophy and culture that Infosys operates with. Their presentation introduced me to their world of innovative services and focus on professional development. The emphasis they laid on continuous learning and creative application of that knowledge for problem-solving attracted me instantly, and at the end of my graduation, I was chosen as an associate with the IVS Business Unit in Canada. As a person inquisitive by nature, the fit was perfect. And soon, I was certain I had made the right move.
There are many reasons an organization earns the GPTW title, but in my opinion, it’s primarily the endless opportunities for growth that have done it for Infosys Canada. By making significant investments in their employees, providing them with the tools and education required to chart their career paths and grow into positions they desire, Infosys has time and again proven that people come first. Personally, I’ve gained a great deal of knowledge and experience through training programs which have significantly broadened my understanding of new technologies that shape our services and further our digital transformation.
From my first day here, I have experienced open and transparent communication at all levels of the organization, allowing me to engage with others freely and clearly understand the expectations the company has from me. It’s this and the fact that they actively seek feedback from employees that truly sets our culture apart. By encouraging employees to embody an entrepreneurial spirit, ask pertinent questions, work both independently and collaboratively, learn new skills, and take initiative when needed, working at Infosys is essentially working towards your own growth while the organization grows with you.
The icing on the cake is that Infosys also offers employees carefully considered mentoring programs and tools that are accessible to everyone. Not only does this create a welcoming and approachable environment, but also provides us with timely advice on how to tackle any problems we might face, right from time management to advancing our careers. With clearly defined channels to seek assistance, I was able to reach out to the right resources every time I needed to.
With the advent of the pandemic, Infosys adapted to our new normal by shifting its onboarding process from in-person to virtual, with minimal disruption. I was encouraged to learn about new technologies, compete in contests to test my knowledge, and attend events to be inspired by new ideas, a convincing demonstration of Infosys' ability to adapt and its commitment to creating positive employee experiences. With this future-focused approach to problem solving at our core, it gives me great pride to work for a company that takes an equitable, sustainable approach and is willing to invest in the growth of its employees. Explains why so many of us love our careers at Infosys.

Having spent a considerable amount of my career working across geographies with Infosys, it gives me great pride in knowing I’ve chosen to invest my time in a Great Place To Work, and vice versa. A steadfast focus on training and empowering its people is what makes Infosys the thriving organization it is today.
I started my career with Infosys in China, back when they were trying to expand their presence there. I found their roadmap to be very interesting, and thus began my journey of personal growth and development, led by the amazing people I met along the way. A journey that would take me halfway around the globe just a few years later.
After an exciting time during which I participated in growing the ERP practice in China and establishing Infosys’ presence there, I moved to Infosys Canada, where I currently work with Infosys Public Services, a subsidiary of Infosys Limited that provides services to public sector clients in North America. My focus is to grow our business with the provincial and municipal governments, as well as crown corporations in Canada.
When I heard that Infosys Canada has been bestowed with the Great Place To Work title, it really came as no surprise. Right from my first day with the organization, what struck me was how open the communication channels were. Guidance was always readily available, and reaching out meant team members across verticals would be by my side until a sound solution was found. Through the years, I have worked with multiple units and teams, and each experience enriched my knowledge and helped me grow.
At the heart of this, I believe, is the culture of collaboration that Infosys values so dearly. It’s a value system driven by real people in the real world, and not just words plastered on the walls of a regular office reception area. Add to that an organization that actively invests in its employees through upskilling programs that always keep you one step ahead of the times, and you have the perfect recipe for a successful business that respects the importance of attracting and retaining talent.
In addition to the human factor, Infosys is also a very client-focused organization, where everyone comes together to find robust solutions that make a real impact on our clients’ businesses. A keen focus on constant innovation and transformative business solutions also ensures that we always remain relevant in an ever-changing world. In my opinion, we seem to live by the saying that if you don’t disrupt your industry, someone else will. And that truly is a winning formula in our line of work.
Last, but certainly not the least, is the unabashed admiration I have for our C-LIFE (Client Value, Leadership by example, Integrity and transparency, Fairness, and Excellence) core values, something that drives our ESG initiatives. It’s this belief system that makes me a proud member of an organization that takes its CSR responsibilities to heart and makes a real difference to the world we all share. And it’s this feeling of pride I’m experiencing as I write these words, that makes the Great Place To Work title so unsurprising to me.
