Pros

Contingent position with benefits & time off.

Cons

The con list is long: • Pay is not adequate for work. Pay is not in the same ballpark as other contingent workers (Currently $8.00 less than similar contingent vendors (Apx. 48%). • HCL is ok paying new people a higher wage than current employees. Clearly they will do this again in the future why would I want to invest myself as a worker when I will be the next one shorted? • HCL “leadership” is overbearing, has never performed the role and had no idea how difficult the tasks presented are. • Recent change occurred adding four new responsibilities to the role, with no financial gain. Much more is expected of us, the amount of stress that has been added is quadrupled. • “Leadership” does not stand by their employees. They point the finger and put the employee in the hot box as they do not understand the role or actions. • Only certain functions of the job are counted in the daily production. Yet it all must get done. • Leadership is self-serving and absent as we are working remotely. • They are constantly asking us to refer friends to this place…. They should understand why they cannot get jobs filled, people with less experience can make more at Wal-Mart. • This is a MISERABLE place to work where you are not respected, honored or appreciated. • Annual appraisals are a joke, no specifics, no examples, no monthly or quarterly reviews.... nothing is consistent. • They are absent until something gains the attention of 3M management, then they do not leave you alone, they maneuver to find a way to blame the employee. When they should incorporate themselves into the process as a whole.

THE WORST

Pros

If you work here, you'll feel like the smartest person on planet earth. Smarter than your entire management tree. If you were born in India and are Male, you have a huge advantage over anybody else in the organisation.

Cons

Micromanaged to the max. Bureaucracy. Very "caste" oriented organisation. Nepotism is rampant. Passive-aggressive and racist company. Incredibly sexist practices. Employee resources are all based overseas and largely unavailable to US based employees. They expect employees to be on calls in the middle of the night (literally midnight-3am often times). They have no concept of, or respect for anybody's time. Management is self serving and fosters a combative morale. Any type of so-called support is slow or nonexistent.
