Pros

Average salary and full benefits

Cons

HCL had won the bid from another IT company after the contract had expired. A lot of good techs and mangers had left shortly afterwards,due to the many misdirection of HCL.To much micro management. I am unable to communicate with just about any type of management. (Possible language barrier). Very seldom are responses made by email in a timely manner. Closing tickets everyday is a high priority, completed or not. it's amazing how much time is wasted re-opening ticket when they should have never been closed in the first place. The service that HCL is providing is horrible compared to what the service was before they came aboard. There is a constant complaint from the customers that are being served " What happened to the IT department? Do they even know what they are doing?".

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.
