Pros

There was a very good training at first. Employees are helpful.

Cons

I was hired as a Software Engineer but ever since I joined I've been doing Test Engineer work. I know colleagues who have extremely different job responsibilities that don't match with their designation. (SEs working as support or QAs). I've had issues with salary as well. Some months it didn't transfer on time sometimes it was an incorrect amount. They do nothing much to make employees happy. Only thing I received from Hcl is a cheap bag of barely edible milk toffees & some tea bags for new year.

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.
