Pros

They have no pros from me unless you count as not around to help you at all.

Cons

my experiences say tickets get closed unfinished. no communication. bad timing. no inspiration to go further. promise the world but deliver nothing and make it out to be your fault. remove you from a job without notice or reason then make you redundant. they save companies money by swooping in and firing staff then bringing in cheaper employees to fill the position. there is no work life balance as they expect you to have meetings all hours to match their needs. They do not value your culture either and do not care about family or locality to the job you're in. it also seems many others think this too. it could be wrong, but this is my personal view as i know they check out these and could lead elsewhere.

Pros

It is a job that pays you money

Cons

Where do I even begin.... HCl is a company that will overwork and underpay you and never give you a raise. I was lucky to get a very competitive wage when I started that I felt like I deserved and I fought for that. However even that process they bait and switched 3 times offering higher amounts over the phone and then going back on their word and offering less and less each time until they finally sent me an offer letter. The entire company is inept at communication at any and all levels. You will never get a raise and any time you have any kind of issue or need management/HR to do anything for you results in being ignored. Additionally they will add and add to your roles and responsibilities and ask for the impossible and unreasonable. They get contracts by underbidding other MSP's and then hiring as few people on site as possible and refer the rest of the work to overseas workers that will never do any work and always kick responsibility back to you. If you ever get lucky and they are forced to actually do their job they show that they clearly have no idea what they are doing or talking about. All around a terrible company to work for. If your job role is getting outsourced to HCL, fight for a good salary up front because they will never give you a raise and try to look for another place to work as soon as you can.
