Pros

I have very few if any positive comments.

Cons

I wasn't valued enough to keep as an employee but was being asked to mentor and train co-workers; even asked to put together internal training as a Subject Matter Expert. Frequently was contacted by co-workers on other contracts to get help/advice in my area of expertise. I was hired to do Development but classified as a Software Tester to minimize the salary they would have to pay. When the contract ended I received my 2 weeks notice with no attempt to place me in other position because I my grade level was 'too low' and was not allowed to apply for jobs at a higher level. That was when I found out the 12+ months I had been working to get my career ladder corrected was a result of deliberate decisions made by HCL at my time of hire limiting my long term viability in the company.

Pros

It was a job. Pros??? None

Cons

Low pay, no Communication. They Lie. My contract ran out, We had a lot of work and not enough people. They told me they were exyending my contract and to come back to work on Monday. I went to work on Monday and I was locked out of the system. All my id's were disabled. I have been waiting for two weeks to be rehired. At first people were sending out emails to find out what was going on, now there is nothing. I've been ghosted. This happened to a number of people. Plus the people they just let go !!!!!
