Infy Vs Rest (To switch or not to)

This is one of the most debated topic of late.
Let's analyse this in detail.
Firstly let me put accross the statements that I've heard in favour of Infy..
-- Infy has a good work enviornment. U won't find it at other places.
-- Infy quotes the salary and others quote CTC.
-- Infy has better growth opportunities.
Now the statements against it...
-- Infy is a govt. org.
-- Salary is too low.
-- Onsite is on luck.

The points in favour of Infy have been given by my seniors and the ones against by fellows.
Let me make it clear that I am neither in favor nor against Infy.

My Views:
Infy has a good work env. (Combined 1st and 3rd points) -- What exactly is "good work env."?
The definiton I got on googling --
"This includes providing good and safe working conditions, equal employment opportunities, impartial selection procedures and opportunities for employee development."

Infy does provide good work env. but does that mean other places don't.
Talking to my friends in other companies extinguishes this doubt.
Infy does provide better work env but only in some respects.
According to me, they are:
1. Job security
2. High quality software development infrastructure.
3. Growth opportunities based on merit more than any thing else.
I know, ppl would say lots of -ve stuff here but trust they would remain the same everywhere.
I have listed down the key differentiators only.

Infy quotes the salary and others quote CTC : True but others do pay higher salary than Infy. No question about it.

Negatives of Infy :

Infy is a govt. org -- True.. There is a lot of beaurocracy but it would similarly be in any organisation of the size of infy.
Onsite is on luck -- True... But it remains same throughout the industry.
Salary is too low -- True it is lesser than some of the fast growing, dynamic organisations.
The point is that on an average the fast growing, smaller org's pay a lot more than the
huge organisations. That holds true for any sector/ any industry.

So finally where should one be a smaller dynamic org. or a larger slower org (like infy).

My take on this is that a job in a smaller company is a high risk, high return business.
Returns are high because effort and risk is also high.

One should go and take such a risk only when he is well prepared for it.
Which means he is extremely confident of survival and also has good requisite skills for his level.
If u r really good -- go and persue your dreams.

If you are not -- work on them first and then decide anything.

My reasons of staying back -- I get lots of time for myself which I spend towards
realisation of personal goals. I am sure this won't be available at any other place.

ciao for now {with the promise of returning soon}
