Boston, MA

Former Employee – worked at HCL America full-time for more than 3 years

ProsThey are making money and have a lot of smart engineers and sales people. I admire the business plan of focusing on vertical and horizontal markets. IT dept does a good job of support. Pretty good health care.

ConsKind of cheap for raises. Can't really say how they are with base salaries, came from another company where I kept my salary. Not many vacation days. Can be penny-wise but pound foolish. Too many colorful big emails that take a long time to load (maybe it's an Indian thing).

Advice to Senior ManagementRemember the men and women in the trenches and treat them right. Your company is only as good at the talent you send out to your customers.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
