Pros

They have a great Fresher program, which takes very recent graduates and provides them with a job to get started in their careers. Health benefits are fantastic for my family. There are many ways to learn through their e-learning site and help from others. I'm on a team that does work for Microsoft, so their are some perks with that, as well. There are opportunities within the company to work hundreds of places around the world.

Cons

Pay is not competitive at all. Growth in the company seems difficult to do, and very few last more than five years, if that, before moving on to another company, but that's kind of typical in a software career for a lot of people anyway. Reviews take 4-5 months to be completed.

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.
