Pros

If you are set with your upline then things are fine.

Cons

1. Things will remain fine till the time your upline is personally happy with you. The moment there is a slight rift then it would be better that you resign. 2. Please imagine that HR doesn't exists. I can do anything to my DR and no one will question. 3. God save you if your reporting manager or your project is based out of Chennai and you are at Noida or LKO location. All good opportunities will land in Chennai, growth will happen in Chennai, onshore opportunities will happen for Chennai and lastly, they would treat you like a dog put. 4. Including the so call HR, no one across level would know any policy for sure. For example, if I were to ask when my appraisal would be, there will be no confirmed answer. 5. It is been a year (11 months) with HCL and today I am uploading my goal sheet in the system for my appraisal. When that appraisal would take affect, only God would know. 6. This would be the only company which has around 8 levels of manager - AM, DM, M, SM, Group Manager, AGM, DGM and GM. I think they should add two more and call it a school. People working for 11 years and could reach to an AM level and salary so low that many entry level jobs are paying better. Really an embarrassment. As a people manager, I find it sometimes impossible to keep my team motivated.

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.
