Pros

Was rebadged to HCL from another company. HCL paid pretty well while the other company was paying the tab.

Cons

Totally lied about keeping rebadged employees. After one year 65% of rebadged employees were let go. During discussions prior to the rebadge they claimed not to keep track of retention after the first year. Straight up lie. They have a formal "Year 2" program where they have targets for how many people to fire. In addition, all decisions are made by upper management. But they never actually make a decision. They just attend meetings all the time and wait for a crisis to occur before they do anything. Not really interested in the success of the client or not. Their approach is just to sign these companies on, get them locked in, and make it difficult for them to switch. They hire incompetent people to replace the talent they brought on board. You will be replaced by 2-3 low skilled overseas labor after the first year.

Pros

Good if you had laid off from the previous job and needs a survival job for a very short period of time. Good if you are working for a reputed client, only if the interaction is directly with the client team and not with HCL.

Cons

The manager that hires you gets brownie points for hiring you to the team. The management does not care of how the project goes afterwards. After a project contract expires, nobody will help you to transfer to a new project or to a new client. Why does the employee has to get released from employment if the management or the HRs or any other SPOCs are not able to find a project with a client for you, because of the lack of ability of the managers ? There are 100s of HRs and other SPOCS from onsite and offshore, but none close to providing of any assistance when required.
