Hughes Systique Corporation Reviews

Employer’s Response

Dear HSCian, We would like to thank you for your valuable contributions at HSC and are glad that the parameters of hybrid working mode, work life balance, food & job security found a mention in the likes section of your review. Coming to the dislikes section of your review, you have made some vague, misleading and generic comments without providing any context or information. Making such comments without any information only affects your credibility and showcases your unprofessional approach towards your workplace. As is known to each HSCian, we follow an open-door policy at HSC and employees irrespective of hierarchy can talk to their managers, engineering group heads, engineering head or for that matter even to Mr. Vinod Sood, MD. What you may have misconstrued as politics could be a case of misunderstanding or miscommunication, which if you would have had talked about with your manager then you would not have been making generic statements on a public platform. While there can seldom be done if one has made up their mind but we would still encourage you to either do what is mentioned above or you can also leverage HSC’s internal platforms like Amber, Q2M, Zero Hour and share your concerns and suggestions anonymously, if you wish so. We would also like to address the readers of the review through you that HSC works for leading OEM’s and product companies around the globe. From the three state-of-the-art R&D centres, we are currently working on projects in the areas of 5G, Satellite Communication, Software Defined Networks, NFV, Enterprise Applications, IoT, AI/ML, Cloud, Security, Embedded Systems, Test Automation, etc. And around 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. Coming to your comment on “no new learning”, had you actually have had a conversation regarding your learning aspirations with your manager, they would have directed you towards the Centers of Excellence, where in you can learn and interact with likeminded engineers to work & innovate on technology of your choice. At HSC, our dedicated Learning & Development team also conducts training seminars & workshops for engineers on a regular interval and for which one can nominate themselves. We also conduct monthly Tech Talks, which facilitate learning of newer technologies. The opportunity to work on cutting-edge technologies with global clients and learning from the best tech minds by working alongside, HSC offers an all-round learning experience with positive long-term effects on the growth of every HSCian. Nevertheless, we hope many more years of your happy association with HSC.

Dear HSCian, It is quite unfortunate that at Hughes Systique you like “nothing”. When one has made up their mind to find “everything” as “pathetic”, there is really seldom much can be done to change the opinion. And especially when the information provided is vague and generic. At HSC, we have median tenure of HSCians at an impressive figure of 6.5 years and some of the associations going back more than 10 years and counting. In this day and age where of fierce competition, it would make no sense for employees to work for so long at an organisation where there is “no skill development”. Also, an organisation that has been on the growth path with a rich technical legacy since the last 18 years like us would not have been so if “everything” was “pathetic” in it. Rather than making generic comments on a public platform, we would encourage you to talk to your manager, engineering group head, engineering head or for that matter Mr. Vinod Sood, MD, and discuss your concerns or suggestions. For we walk the talk when it comes to following the open-door policy. You can also share your concerns or suggestions and anonymously also if you wish, on internal platforms like Q2M, Amber, Zero Hour etc. We wish many more years of your happy association with us.

Dear HSCian, We are glad that you atleast found HSC’s Gurugram campus to be “good”. It seems that you have already made up your mind on disliking your organisation for your comments lack any context, are vague & generic and misleading. HSC as an organisation is CMMI Level 5 certified and became the first company globally to be appraised at Maturity Level 5, in the combined benchmarking appraisal for the three domains of Development, Services and People. By extension, an organization with “poor” management, inefficient HR cannot sustain or exist and create a legacy since the last 18 years as we have done. When you say that HSC is working on older 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. HSC being an Engineering Services Organization, constant learning of new technologies and staying abreast with the latest advancement is an integral part of the organization. There is a Learning Plan that every engineer puts together as part of their Yearly objectives. Also had you have had a conversation regarding your learning aspirations with your manager before taking to the public platform, they would have directed you towards the Centers of Excellence, where in you can learn and interact with likeminded engineers to work & innovate on technology of your choice. At HSC, our dedicated Learning & Development team also conducts training seminars & workshops for engineers on a regular interval and for which one can nominate themselves. We also conduct monthly Tech Talks, which facilitate learning of newer technologies. The opportunity to work on cutting-edge technologies with global clients and learning from the best tech minds by working alongside, HSC offers an all-round learning experience with positive long-term effects on the growth of every HSCian. We urge you to kindly talk to your manager, engineering group head, the engineering head or for that matter, Mr. Vinod Sood, MD, as we do not shy away from such conversations. You could have also leveraged the internal platforms like Amber, Q2M, Zero Hour etc. and share your suggestions anonymously, if you wish so. Nevertheless, we wish many more years of your happy association with us.

Dear HSCian, Thank you for sharing your approving review on HSC’s employee centric policies which enable all our employees to manage their work & personal lives efficiently. Addressing the dislikes section of your review, we have never claimed, advertised as such nor do we aspire to be in top quartile when it comes to the compensation that we offer. 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. Moreover, as you must also be knowing that currently the sector is still recovering from the effects of the pandemic and while many organisations have resorted to retrenching their employees, at HSC we have never in the past nor now, have let the market conditions affect any HSCian. You are encouraged to kindly talk to your manager, engineering group head or for that matter the engineering head as we walk the talk when it comes to following the open-door policy. You can also leverage the internal platforms like Amber, Q2M, My Ideas Matter etc. to share your concerns and suggestions anonymously, if you wish so. We wish many more years of your happy association with us.

Dear HSCian, Thank you for your approving review on the aspect of “Job security” which especially is getting rarer in the sector that we operate in. We find that your comments in the dislikes section of the review are not only vague and misleading but is also a generic one which lacks any context. Being a member of HSC and especially the HR team, you must be aware that HSC is a PCMM & CMMI Level 5 certified organisation and by extension of that it means that all our policies and procedures are aimed at benefitting not only the organisation but also our people. Employee centricity acts as the cornerstone to our foundational values and have been created and curated very carefully since our inception. While there is seldom to say if one has already made up their mind to be negative and not reason but at HSC you are always encouraged to talk to your managers, skip-level managers or even to Mr. Vinod Sood, MD, and share your concerns or suggestions with them. You must also be aware of the internal platforms that HSCians can leverage to share their concerns & suggestions like Amber, Q2M, Zero Hour etc. Nevertheless, we wish many more years of your happy association with HSC.
