Pros

You can get exposure to niche technologies even if you don't have a prior experience. Good for entry and mid level people. However excellent for people looking for long term at mid or senior level and if they can indulge in office politics.

Cons

Vendor centric approach as they will take one product and spend millions to get nothing as vision is not envisioned at the end and then they will try again... no checks on this by sr. management. mandatory shift coverage of 9:30 hrs. bad for ambitious people as your skills and aspiration may go for a toss if you side with a particular lobby.

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.
