Pros

Coworkers are smart and supportive. The only reason I’m staying is due to my current manager.

Cons

Infosys has ruined what used to be a good company. Everyone I talk to or work with is stressed beyond measure. The mass exodus of c level leaders and experienced senior leaders is a gap that is not showing a clear vision to the remaining employees. A nearly 💯 turn over of sales in the past few months has resulted in missing targets. I doubt anyone will see second half bonuses since there are constant threats of layoffs for the past 3 months. The environment is chaos. The change of when promotions and a possible merit increase from April to July is a deplorable experience for the employees, at least there is the promised back pay from April.

Pros

Capability management is top notch. Direct manager focuses on personal targets of their team members.

Cons

Lots of clients choosing to leave to pursue other competitors. Annual increase for this year has yet to be given. Should have been processed April this year, but to date ( August 2024) still no news if it will still be given. Lots of turnovers especially in senior management both Onshore and Off Shore which makes you doubt your job security. Threats of layoffs always looming. Sudden changes to bonuses without proper cadence.

Pros

The only real benefit left is permanent work-from-home, and even that feels like a distraction from how bad things have gotten. Some great people remain, mostly out of loyalty or luck, and a few decent managers are trying to protect their teams. But the reality is: you're constantly under pressure to hit utilization targets, and there’s no support if you fall behind. Remote or not, you’ll feel the chaos.

Cons

There have been no raises in years, bonuses are gone or “under review,” and top performers are walking away in frustration. The PH team has been gutted and replaced by Infosys resources, and nearly all new work goes straight to Infosys. The Simplus culture? Dead and buried. Leadership is disconnected, projects are rushed and under-scoped, and burnout is the norm. Attrition is sky-high, but no one seems to care. Utilization is king — everything else is ignored.

Pros

Some really good people and managers who have been at Simplus since the gool ol' days (prior to 2023) are still here. Base Pay is in line with most Salesforce consultancies. Many people-managers support and defend good work/life balance and high-quality projects, though some in word only. Until 2025, Simplus has an 'unlimited PTO' policy, though with obvious limits.

Cons

The Infosys takeover is accelerating. The once-wonderful company culture continues a downward spiral toward a low-rent body shop. Top leadership left in 2022-23, replaced by Infosys yes-men, or the occasional well-intentioned guy whose ideas are handcuffed by inept Infosys leaders. Senior Managers and experienced Consultants continue leaving, replaced by folks comfortable in a low-rent environment. Many skilled Salespeople left, new Salespeople are not selling enough and not selling our strengths. Pipeline has been thin for a while except for terribly-run Infosys-led projects (not Simplus-led). SOWs are under-scoped or infeasible timelines. Projects staffed with increasing offshore and US visa-holders, and projects that are unfortunately led by Infosys (not Simplus) PMs push heavy workloads, long days and weekend work. This has been causing stress and burnout for seasoned Architects & Tech Leads. Infosys project leaders often over-promise, under-deliver, and lead projects into troubled escalations, which results in whipping the workers, forcing night and weekend work, rather than having intelligent project plans and realistic timelines. Company is ditching Salesforce as an internal tool and migrating to Workday, despite the fact we are a Salesforce consultancy. Laptops are locked down, and any IT help that needs to come from Infosys can take weeks to resolve instead of the 10 minutes it used to take Simplus IT to fix something.
