There are very few and supporting leaders in the company.
Dislikes
No work life balance. No proper estimation and unrealistic targets which in turn affect the employees working timings without any allowance. We are forced to work in weekends to meet the target. Only 3% hike when the company can sponsor for cricket. HR doesn't support employees but rather support the leadership. When raised for any concerns managers target your appraisal stating it's the bell curve and it works the same way in all the projects....Read More

Dislikes
The management is biased and creating a shit of a good organization. No appraisals. No recognition. No growth. Only the management is growing by cost cutting and throwing people out of the organisation. Better to join a small organisation as there is no job security here also now.

People who keep job security over growth join this company because they don't have any selling point apart from job security.
Dislikes
Company don't bother about attrition and the company which doesn't bother about it is not employe centric. They should hire managers from top B schools or MNCs only who understand MNC culture cause current managers, PM came from lala companies have zero leadership skills and only knows micromanagement and focus on controlling.

The work life balance at BSERV was very poor. No Job Security... They have 25 reasons for putting a candidate to Bench apart from their poor performance.
There is no work satisfaction and timely recognition.
Also no timely promotions, there is no growth timely.
Dislikes
Performance Recognition was not there for truely deserved candidates.
No Work-Life Balance.
Poor Salary Package for BSERV Employees
Very Pathetic manual oriented Performance Management System where RM's can do and write anything without justice to candidates.
Auditors are thrown out to Bench once the audit cycle is over due to some or other reason by RM's. The Organization culture has been infected by senior executives who are more than 10 years at HCL, they take decisions haphazard Cally without data backup.
There was worst IJP process followed, I was moved to Kalyan Appakka team and completed the training for 2 months, post training client was asking me to work full night shift which I denied due to health reasons, client suddenly threw me out of the project, and I was placed at Bench and HR also did not support me. Very pathetic IJP process followed....Read More

It was going well with HCL but the way HCL people behaved with me many times especially during the last days of my time with HCL just to ruin my career is a worst experience which I have faced during my whole tenure. Pathetic experience in terms of working environment, people behavioral concerns etc. No support from anyone whether its your Seniors or HR or any other Team. In terms of policies and appraisals also its worst to work in HCL. I am very surprised to see that what kind of people especially Seniors we have in HCL who are highly responsible to destroy employee's career very effectively. Overall, I can say it's a worst experience with HCL....Read More

No body interferes
Because no body cares what you are doing.
All depends on the client feedback.
Dislikes
List is huge
There is no proper timeline for increment letters
Every year they change the effective date of the increment
Manager only listens if there is client escalation
Management are super busy they dont ping back on your chats
Management does not have the clear answer on any thing.
They dont care if employee is satisfied or not.

Job security is Zero 0 it may be in my process only and magers also very hard to understand and not professional as well.
When you will try to report the issues to the HR then no hearing will be there for employee.

No bus facility, not good work culture, no work-life balance, worst senior management, very bad appraisal mechanism and which is not implemented or followed by management effectively, salary hikes are very less sometimes a big NO for it, No transparency in any process, policies are there just in documents nothing is favoured to employees and will be considered by HR team only when they need.
Overall 8 negatives for 2 positives is the high-level ratio. As I could see the organization is not running in the way which was there 10 yrs back. Companies margin majorly depends on employees variable pay cut I believe....Read More
