Pros

The one and only good thing I have had is my manager is nice. I have heard otherwise from mostly everyone else though.

Cons

Terrible pay, I was lied to when first joining being told a huge raise at 1 yr mark. $2 raise. I am now 2 years and 4 months in. Told I was going to get a promotion at 2 years. Still nothing. I want to leave so bad but now I am stuck waiting for the promotion. I would avoid at all cost.

They Do not care

Pros

Overall good if you are assigned to any projects, as you work with clients not really with the HCL team or managers necessarily.

Cons

Once you don't have projects, they try to assign you using a demand sheet and an offshore (India) team who supposedly helps you with your journey. You get only 15 days to get allocated. In these 15 days I tried to contact all the help I could including my manager, HR, the offshore team, first 10 days no one responded. I felt they do not exist. Ran out of time, my end date came and got laid off. The entire experience was that "They do not care".

Pros

-Flexibility and freedom IF you are in a position off of the phones - impossible to get fired

Cons

- nearly impossible to get fired so you are stuck with team members who don’t carry a fraction of their weight and create more work -chronically understaffed -extremely underpaid -raises are rare and do not meet inflation even if we do get them -subpar benefits - clients have been jumping ship a lot
