Pros

If you are with a good project and a good team you can have a good time and growth.

Cons

1. Too much inclined towards client and everything proposed is accepted. 2. "Employee first. Customer Second" policy of the company is a big joke. 3. Some clients just are too difficult to work with and employees are further burdened with additional responsibilities on HCL end. 4. Group managers in most projects are in the company for more than 20+ years and they are still working with the master - slave approach. 5. Group managers make it hell for the employees and contribute to the attrition of the company. 6. HCL mandatory trainings are too vast and very difficult for laterals to spend time to complete them and they have no value to add.

Pros

Data Center Exposure Free lunch in cafeteria at Mesa location Can have a lot of downtime Not aggressively tracking you on everything Job is not difficult

Cons

no free lunch for other locations in valley Pay could be better Only contracted to work with the data center company, HCLTech could potentially lose the contract not directly employed by data center company. No benefits if working through an agency, only paid holidays if direct HCL. Management is a bit scattered.
