Pros

nothing, some nice people and salary

Cons

1. HR: company is completely has no HR department, even the technical department. They keep giving orders about tasks and work they have no clue about. 2. Workload: Not divided properly or even based on the skill sets of the engineers. Completely ignorance about what their calibers can do. 3. Upper Management: I am pretty sure none of them went to school not even college. They have no clue about anything and all they care for is how to annoy the employees. If they ever have the chance to make us work for free they will (which they did in this crisis with some people). 4. Crisis Management: No crisis management, just like the previous point. I’m sure None of them went to college or understands how to handle a crisis. They don’t mind risking the employees life for cash. They deliberately ignore the employees raised flags about danger and their need for a response from them. And their lesson learned from any crisis is yes we will have you risk your life and if you fear for your life and ask for another solution, their indirect answer is that you will be fired. 5. Quality “Department”: This is just a joke, a couple of people sitting behind their desks doing absolutely nothing and cashing in their paychecks at the end of every month 6. CEO: A complete idiot, any female can control him easily. Has no idea how to run a company like this. Lost a lot of amazing and great calibers with his childish acts. 7. Raises and Promotions: none of that happens, they are based on the appraisal that they don’t do and even if they did, it’s not taken into consideration 8. Appraisals: A complete joke and waste of time.

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.
