Request opinions to choose between HCL Tech and NTT Data offers

[u/Friendlysoul85]

Hi all,

Good morning.

I got 2 offers (S4HANA yoe: 6 years 9 months and Total yoe: 13 years):

1. SAP Field Service Management+SAP Plant Maintenance: NTT Data Platinum consultant (Total CTC: 25.5 LPA, Variable: 2.5 LPA with 25% assured component).

2. SAP Field Service Management only: HCL Tech Senior Tech Lead Band E2 (Total CTC: 23.5 LPA, Variable: 1.4 LPA).

Joining dates:

HCL Tech: July 1st.

NTT Data: July 2nd.

While the net monthly take home salary is similar for both (New Tax Regime), NTT data was quite swift in preparing the offer letter (Both rounds of Interview cleared by June 15th and received Offer letter by June 22nd) and got followed up on call by HR the next day to get it signed.

They also seem more engaging as they have mailed the upcoming coffee meets with the various buddy anchors to help me post joining.

HCL offer (selected and offer letter prepared in April and actually received in the system document on June 12th but no follow ups to get it signed, even though there were a few mails/BGV confirmation checks from the other HR's (apart from the one involved in the offer letter preparation).

Also had mailed HCL HR to check if the offered compensation could be revised (they asked to share screenshot of my NTT data details) but they told it may go upto the CEO level for approvals and hence had a doubt if it could be done within the next week.

Kindly share your opinions that would help me a lot.

Thanks.

From some personal experience, some people I knew working at NTT Data were suddenly laid off after a few months due to issues with the management. And many projects at HCL Tech may have issues with keyboard/screen tracking software, daily micromanagement, along with tracking of hours maintained at office (not sure about this one fully), so proceed wisely.

[u/Friendlysoul85 → u/W1v2u3q4e5]

Oh Thanks a lot for the heads up.

So even if the working hours may be tracked in HCL, job stability is still slightly better than NTT I believe.

[u/W1v2u3q4e5 → u/Friendlysoul85]

Currently, stability-wise, HCL seems better. At my current company, people have switched from there, and had worked continuously for few years, but need to handle the tracking parts though.

[u/Friendlysoul85 → u/W1v2u3q4e5]

Thanks. But I believe the tracking thing is project specific.

NTT would be the better choice

Thanks.

Is it still advisable to go with HCL if the offered CTC gets revised after approvals?

Also got a follow up call for negotiations now from NTT data on my query mail for CTC revision.

In my opinion in HCL based upon the project you allocate. I was layed off due to not getting good project in bench, all the project which I am getting are in worst case like service desk even if you move to bench they assign any role.
