Pros

I can only appreciate the great team I ended up with, very nice people always trying to help each other.

Cons

Management and HR don’t exist… The worst company ever! I don’t know how is possible that big companies still hire HCL to take care of their projects, I assume they’re cheap, but this has negative consequence especially on the employee! The entire management staff is in India and they don’t care about you, a lot of issues on payslips (less money, never more :D), and to fix this, it will expect you an excruciating threads of emails, begging for your own money. In case you get a promotion, your contract won’t change and you won’t have an increase of salary…basically, you’re just working more! The annual bonus is a mere mirage, even when you work harder then ever and your metrics are perfect, every month you will receive the default answer: “you’ll have it next month!” You will be lost ESPECIALLY at the beginning: trainings are ridiculous, done from someone not even in the country, any of your questions will never have a response…as I said…LOST. Minimum by law: no bonus, no perks, no sick paid, no health insurance, 20 day holidays, work on bank holiday. I was not completely sincere about perks, you have free sneaks :D You can’t trust the company, in case you need some papers for every possible situation, for bank, revenue or visa you won’t receive assistance, the HR is completely useless! At the end probably you will receive what you need but every time you will have for sure to fight for it.

Pros

none at all - yup none - rotten company

Cons

poor pay - no pay rises - no sick pay - no benefits - they promote you but offer no extra pay - dog pile work onto you then complain when you are not delivering despite being over loaded - no medical beneifits - no respect from upper management - poor training - training by inexperienced trainers - managers that play mahjong or solitaire all day while passing their duties onto agents who still earn the same pay as newbs - unbelievably high staff turn over rate

Pros

Good young environment, can be fun sometimes.

Cons

Poor management, employees are never first despite that this is their saying! Hard to move up, never thanked for all the work you do. Very negative and they hire anything due to employees always leaving. The pay is also horrible in this day and age with unachievable bonuses. There are better jobs out there with more money.
