Pros
The only pros for working at HCL is the supposed flexible work week which I will detail more in the cons. Benefits are reasonable cost wise, but getting support from HR or accounting is like pulling teeth. I have heard for all the employees nationwide in the US there are only 2 HR representatives.
Cons
You are awarded no sick time, but the "flexible work week" is used as an excuse for this and if you need to be off you supposedly take the day and then work it out in the rest of the week. HCL feels that the flexible work week washes out with working extra hours and taking time off, however there is no reasonable tool available to track your time. In the event you are actually able to get "Overtime" pay for hours worked over 40, it will be pennies on the dollar for your actual hourly rate.No one ever acquires more than 2 weeks of vacation regardless of tenure.
