There is nothing great about HCL
Company policies are very pathetic and there is no transparency. There is lot of groupism and the Leadership team is very bad and not transparent. Their variable pay/bonus policy is not transparent either... over all it is very bad experiance.

HCLtech has an excellent work environment based on people, place and culture. The learning opportunity is plenty .
Growth opportunity is limited and slow, appraisals are always delayed and hike is below industry standard.

Project availability
Salary, Career growth. Bringing Intermediate/12th class qualified people when there is so much unemployment in the market. Intermediate qualified people work in PMOs and recruiting, they question and ask our weekly updates, pathetic experience. Increments are given only for every two years and that 0 to 3%. Favorism for promotions and surprise bonuses. Unrealistic demand for contribution to Value portal, just to meet the management targets. Very unrealistic promises by Sales people to their customers....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

Initially for starting 3 months the environment was very good and positive..I thought this is the right place for my future but after 3 months the management started to show their true colors.

In my experience nothing I like in HCL
actually I wasted one year of time here because I gave face to face interview for 3 rounds after selecting to HCL their was a internal project discussion which means internal interview that guy was very rude and finally he told like I don't know any thing waste candidate for position ....my question is like if I am not capable for that position why HCL is selected me ? Am I not capable? Or HCL interview panel persons are not capable of selecting right person? But any how I wasted 1yr in HCL.....please don't trust HCL...Read More

Big Infrastructure, Good Stable Company, good for the people who likes Job security! Salary is always on time, very good medical facilities and others employees' benefits. Overall, it is very nice company for sure!
Salary is on time but other incentives, your promotion, your bonus, your increments etc are in Arrears, You will get it for sure but always in arrears, HR is not at all effective. Just like your Job which is stable, your salary will be stable as well, please do not expect any other thing except Stability. Company culture in terms ofHR is not at all good, no major governance towards how management is calibrating an employee, how promotions are happening? That is the only reason I left HCLTech, otherwise, in other domains, might be the HR as people doing good things. HCLTech is a beautiful organization but some wrong people who are in that position to spoil the overall experience and culture, My advice is to hire good mature people in leadership positions and especially in HR domain. Please save this beautiful company and I'm the sure the top management are doing lots of things to streamlines the process down there but really need to put strong governance on middle management, specially in HR domain...Read More

If you are a fresher then it can be a good opportunity to start your career
Pay scale is very poor which is acceptable from a Indian IT company. If you are planning to join here i would suggest you to have atleast 4-5 years experience as you will get all the facilities such as Can etc.

There is nothing to say about liking the things about HCL. In Ambitionbox, if I had the opportunity to reduce from 1 star to 0.5 star I would prefer to do that.
There are so many things thing to dislike HCL. 1) Do not go with the Brand name. You might feel that choose a brand rather than any other small companies just go to that small company rather than choosing it. 2) Forget about the hikes. Atleast you have to stay for 2 years then you can think about it(Note: Depends on the CTC. If it crossing more than 7lpa then you will not get any hikes upto 3 years.) 3) Technology is outdated. Suppose If you want to go out from HCL after working 2-3 years then you have to work really hard to coup with the trending technologies because while you are searching jobs in the market then you can realise that most of the tools are outdated. 4) If you think your life is secured after getting a job in HCL then you are wrong because HCL is silently reducing there bench strenth. Max to max 2-3 months. 5) Throughout my tenure in HCL I understood one thing if you are fresher & cannot get a job but hcl is knocking your door then grab it atleast you can get the basic pavement or if you have more than 12 years of work ex then it is good for the retirement company but 1-12 yrs of work ex do not even think about it....Read More

HCL is a good place to work with with sound office environment. If the work from home is provided parmanently then working with HCL could be continued with better opportunity and appraisal

Great opportunity to work in HCL. Hcl techies help us alot and all employees are just like a family. There is no partiality. Helping and supporting is good
Some peoples are showing attitude and partiality. Everyone need leadership quality, but I observed there is lack of leadership quality.
