Pros

Project is good. Manager is very professional and concentrates on work alone other than any drama. He always encourages his team and if in case of any issue, he will guide and lead till we solve the issue. When there is no work (for like half-day), he will leave us instead of assigning other work to keep us busy. I liked this point because my previous project manager, whenever we dont have any work, he intentionally allots us work to keep us busy and torture us. In this project, even if we are free, we will concentrate on learning something or doing script fixes instead of wasting time. (Because I liked project, I like to work, so I concentrate on learning to get some value added to this project.) This project has lot of scope to learn.

Cons

HR management is worst. Those people iterally lie. Firstly they told me some structure for bonus, but that is different after I joined. There are no HR sessions. Reaching HR is very difficult. Even if we call, they dont lift. They wont respond to emails also. After continually calling for 5-6 days, they will lift call and answer rudely. There is no timeline for yearly hikes and appraisal procedure. After completing my first year here, I didnt received any hike letter even after 3months.

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.
