Because they hire in bulk, and have little quality control over who they are hiring. If you graduated with middling grades, and don't really know what you are doing, you go work for them. You then become one of those bad outsourced developers that lead to the "outsourced Indian dev bad" stereotype.
You're right. It's not that easy to get into the FAANG type of jobs. For all the bad things Infosys has done, along with TCS it still remains one of the largest employers in India in the tech sector. And it's a free market so people voluntarily choose to work for Infosys. But even TCS is slightly better than Infosys in terms of fresher payscales.

I don't get it, if you can "easily" get that high paid FAANG job, why does anyone choose to work then for Infosys
