Employer’s Response
Dear HSCian,
While we are glad that you have found Hughes Systique’s culture of employee centricity, the important aspect of job security to be of worth a positive mention in your review.
Though, when you say that HSC is working on legacy projects & old technologies, kindly note that with three state-of-the-art R&D centres, we are working on multiple projects using the latest Digital Technologies like Cloud, AI & ML, NoSQL/SQL databases, Microservices architecture, Spring boot, Angular, React, Python, Django, Selenium. In Wireless we are working on most cutting-edge work in the 5G, O-RAN, Software Defined Radio, LTE, M-plane, Network Function Virtualization and satellite communication, Embedded development using C, Linux, Microcontroller, RPA etc. We understand that your suggestions are in the right spirit, but we would also like you to know that many of the services companies especially old players, have a mix of legacy and new projects.
We encourage you to talk to your manager, engineering group head or the engineering head to know more about the various technologies that we work in, and they will be able to give you a clearer picture and guide you towards the Centers of Excellence, to learn more about the various projects being executed and R&D being done across different tech domains to clear your understanding.
Thank you.
Company is good . No micro-management and job security

Employer’s Response
Dear HSCian,
We would like to start by thanking you for sharing your positive review on the learning opportunities provided at Hughes Systique. We would also like to thank you for rating us fairly in the category of Job Security, which has unfortunately become a rarity in the sector we work in.
Addressing the dislikes section of your review, we would like you to know that HSC is not only an equal opportunity employer but is also a PCMM & CMMi Level 5 organisation. As an extension of that, all our decisions, interactions and departments are also governed by a set of policies and procedures which guides us and also ensures that everybody is treated the same way, irrespective of their hierarchy, department or the duration of association. Your remark that ‘management only likes & believes who are there since the beginning and will stay there for their life’ is sweepingly generic to be true.
But you are always encouraged, like all HSCians, to talk to your manager, engineering group head, engineering head or for that matter, to Mr. Vinod Sood, MD, as we do not shy away from such conversations. You can also share your concerns and suggestions through our internal platforms like Amber, Q2M, Zero Hour etc., and anonymously, if you wish to do so.
We look forward to many more years of happy association with you.
You are reading trusted reviews. Keep reading to find out more about
Hughes Systique Corporation.

Employer’s Response
Dear HSCian,
We are glad that you have found the culture at HSC to be “excellent” and have been able to balance your professional, personal and social lives efficiently. Thank you for your encouraging words for the cafeteria team, they would be pleased to know the same.
Coming to the cons section of your review, we would like you to know that HSC is an equal opportunity employer, compensation fitments & revisions are independent of gender, ethnicity, age, colour & nationality etc. Salary fitment is purely based on a candidate’s experience, profile, the role he/she is being hired for and performance in the interview and not on the basis of last drawn salary of the candidate. Salary fitments are done, afresh, each year basis. Compensation is reviewed once every year in April based on the performance of the employee, salary band for that role/grade and are aligned with the market offering for the respective skill set. They are not averaged out over years.
You are requested to talk to your manager, engineering group head or the engineering head and share your concerns and suggestions with them as we do not shy away from such discussions.
Nevertheless, we wish many more years of your happy association with us.
Hybrid model of working culture.
You get chance to work on challenging projects.

We would like you to know that at Hughes Systique we follow the open-door policy in all seriousness and employees are always encouraged to talk to their manager, engineering group head, engineering head or for that matter to Mr. Vinod Sood, MD, and share their concerns or suggestions.

You have to pay 6 month or max 8month half yearly incentive at the time of leaving company, and the best part is it will not be mentioned in FNF.All the increments will be going to half yearly incentive. So avoid it.

Employer’s Response
Dear Anonymous,
We are glad that you found HSC as an employer to be “overall good” and mentioning as such in the likes section of your review.
Addressing the dislikes section of your review, we would like to let you know and through this review to the readers as well that that the half yearly incentive is an assured component of salary.
By design, some salary components have a retention aspect built into them. Half Yearly Incentive is one such component and engineers, including yourself, may have experienced deductions due to separation before the completion of the required tenure. All terms related to this component are clearly and transparently published for all employees in the company.
Even if you would have accessed the “Separation Portal” on Appedia, you would have been better informed and as such, our HR team would have gladly guided you through the details if enquired.
We noticed that you have given us a poor review for “Skill development”. We would like you to know that our dedicated Learning & Development team schedules various comprehensive trainings from time to time with active inputs from Engineering recommending the topics to be covered. We wish only if you would have leveraged those trainings aligning with your areas of interest. Also, HSC encourages self-learning for HSCians to learn at their pace using the training content available online.
You could have also spoken to your manager, engineering group head or engineering head, share your areas of interest & seek their guidance. Centres of Excellence at HSC could have immensely added to your learning experience.
Nevertheless, we wish you the best for your future and thank you for your valuable contributions at HSC.

Employer’s Response
Dear HSCian,
We would like to start by thanking you for your valuable contributions at HSC. It is also encouraging to know that you have found work flexibility, learning opportunities and also the latest tech that HSCians work in.
Coming to the dislikes section of your review, we are sure that even you would agree that an organization with “weak management” would not be on the growth path that HSC has been since its inception. It is because of our dynamic leadership and management team that has not only contributed immensely to the culture of employee centricity at HSC but has also led the team through times of adversity including a global pandemic. We would also like you to know that when it comes to job security, we always stand thick and thin with our employees and even with all the noise about “restructuring of teams” we are seeing currently with the sector, HSC has never believed in the practice of layoffs.
Also, we have never in the past or present either advertised or aspired as such to be in the topmost quartile as far as compensation is concerned. Our benefits package along with people centric work environment, an enabling family like culture and opportunity to work on cutting edge technologies for global customers makes us one of the best companies to work for in our industry.
If you still have any concerns or suggestions then you can share it through the internal platforms like Amber, Q2M, My Ideas Matter etc. or talk to your manager, engineering group head or engineering head for that matter.
Nevertheless, we wish many more years of your happy association with us.

Employer’s Response
Dear HSCian,
It is quite unfortunate and at the same time astounding that you find “Nothing” worth of value or a praise at Hughes Systique. We understand that each individual has their own experience to share in an organisation but the fact that in your review you have chosen to share nothing in detail, but only generic points show the lack of connect you had with the organisation.
HSC has been on a path of growth and trusted by not only its esteemed and long-time clients but also by the people who make HSC, our HSCians. We are proud of continuing associations of HSCians for as long as of over 16 years and the same fact is testament to the kind of culture we have very carefully created and curated since our inception. Moreover, why an organisation would go to the lengths of “bringing down the career” of its own employee which would result in its own harm, especially in the highly competitive IT sector, is something beyond our understanding. The time & resources that go goes into hiring, training, learning, and development is not an easy accomplishment. We are a PCMM & CMMi Level 5 certified organisation which are awarded only to organisations with best employee practices.
We would still encourage you to share your concerns with your manager, engineering group head, engineering head or even with Mr Vinod Sood, MD, as we are staunch practitioners of the Open-door policy. You can even share your concerns anonymously if you want, through our internal platforms like Amber, Q2M, Zero Hour etc.
We would still like to thank you for your contribution and hard work and wish you many more years of happy association with HSC.
Thank you
