Technical Lead Salary in India (Updated 2025)

Likes

They will give you Salary whatever you demand but later there is no internal hike as such. So while joining you should demand higher

Dislikes

No Job security at all. Most of the projects are short term. If you don't have Project. 45 days Bench and then terminated. In that 45 days also, they line up interviews which do not match your skills just to count the no. Of interviews you have given and still not selected. And then make it a reason of termination

Salary I got was good I got hybrid work

Dislikes

2 months of bench and you will be put on loss of pay from 3rd month. No WFH on bench, during LOP also you have to come to office. Bench is horrible, projects will block you for weeks and you'll be not able to give interview for other projects and after that they will release you and your bench period will be wasted. Old mnc culture still manager's are in old decade. Get as much as hike you can get, very less hike Very less projects for Hyderabad in development role

... related policy like leaves ad priorities for onsite compare with FTE candidate. And main thing your salary will not directly come from Infosys, it's come from your third party payroll company.

Dislikes

If project gone, you will also gone from company with in 2 days. So this is the most dangerous part of 3rd party payroll.

Before 2019 I felt everything ok. But, in recent times nothing to share which felt ok except If you are working you will get Salary on time.

Dislikes

Bench period seems to be dangerous. If somebody is on bench then start Looking for job in another Company. Please don't trust you will get project once released. May be its a challanging time for tech m.

Good pay compared to other service based organisation.

Dislikes

After take over by Chris capital, it's more like other service based organisation. Notice period is increased from 60 days to 90 days. Management always look for cost cutting options which impacts employee leaves and annual increment.
