Pros

1. An exposure to global customers - across the world, but that means you will also have to adjust your working clock according to your client's one. 2. Work-Life balance is pretty much good. 3. You can get a free full body health check-up once in a year at the HCL Technologies campus (HCL health care center) along with your family dependent (parents). If you require to get an additional health check-up it's chargeable. 4. Work life is superb, GYM, Indoor games, AHA services (talent, activities team), No restrictions on dress code but (should be good attire). 5. Good infrastructure 6. Hike is not so good.

Cons

I have been on the bench after joining over a long period of time approximately 8-9 months and some people are on the bench for 2 years. So if you want to work on some real-world problems then it just depends on your mere luck that you will get some project or you will stay on the bench.

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.
