Pros

Job Security is one of the major reasons to stick with HCLA. You have the freedom to make decisions within your area of work as long as the Client is kept happy and no escalations are reported back to HCL Senior Management.

Cons

Heartless employer when it comes to compensation. The compensation will be 20%-30% less than the average market rates prevailing in the area. They bring in most of their staff on L1 Visa with very less salaries which would tie them up with the organization preventing them from shifting companies. Most of the resources work atleast 12 hours a day without any overtime benefits and they cannot do much about it as they live in the US on a L1 visa.

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.
