Pros

When my former company outsourced my job to HCL they picked me up but as soon as their folks in India were able to take over all of my responsibilities they laid me off because I was "too expensive."

Cons

An employee is simply a cost of doing business to HCL. Sure they will find a place for you in another location if they need to lay you off from one project that will mean that you must relocate at your own expense. While this may be possible for their H1B visa holders it is not practical for a family person who owns a house where they are currently located.

HCL embraces Data Science

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Data Science is a core component of HCL's future plans, and it is very apparent. Lots of different projects to work on. Smaller projects when you start, leading to larger more complex projects as you gain experience. Machine learning journal clubs to improve your skills on the job. Good salary and decent benefits. Independent projects and engagements.

Cons

Sometimes projects can be too independent, and the success of a project, no matter what the task, can depend entirely on you.
