Pros

Not much work pressure there is a work life balance unless you get into some really bad accounts. Direct interaction with CEO Vineet Nayyar this makes employees feel good to raise their concerns to know about the company projections directly from the mouth of none other than CEO All the automation related of employee workflows in place on myHCL.in Salary always on time If the last day of the month is a holiday you will get the salary even earlier. SLA on Support staffs so it become easier to get the work done.These SLAs are monitored strictly to have the employees getting work done on time from support staff. You don't need to follow support staff offline. Its the same you need your desktop fixed, you need visa

Cons

Average Salary. Salary is just at par with industry standards if you are looking for great paymasters probably this is not the company for you Low Increments There is a government like work still in few accounts.

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.
