A WALK AROUND INFOSYS' HYDERABAD CAMPUS

It is extremely impressive, with park-like surroundings.

The campus (which by no means is Infosys' largest, that is in Bangalore and Mysore) has training facilities with on-campus accommodation for students. There are two large food courts, the obligatory cricket ground, mini-golf and all kinds of recreational facilities for the Infosyian (employees).

I will let the pictures speak for themselves - it is quite a complex.

This is Building 14, one of the newest buildings on the campus.

Walking towards the southern center part of the campus. The construction at the other end will be a mirror image of building 14.

View North towards one of the two food courts (the building with the domed roof.)

Building 14 and the South foodcourt.

There aren't many parked cars to see on the campus, courtesy of this parking house. 90% of the employees live within 10km of the campus, and Hyderabad has relatively good roads (in fact, the State government of Andhra Pradesh sees good infrastructure as one of their main attractions for IT companies.) Note the boulders - they are typical rock formations and seen all around Hyderabad...
