I like the way HCL take care of its employees. Even during COVID19, hcl paid our salary and takes good care of our mental as well as physical health. The work life balance is great at HCL with Job security.

Dislikes

HCL has multiple projects running so every project has their own work environment and ethics. So, there are internal politics and favoritism present. Micromanagement hampers the real talent and potential of a genuine employee who doesn't involve much into the gossips with managers and taking credits of their peers works. So the funda here is, if you want to sustain you need to network with the managers and need to be in their good books to make progress in your career with HCL or the project you are working in. Even the good ratings and appraisal is being given mostly to their favorites.
