HCLTech ETL Test Engineer Reviews

Likes

Job security, international client base, on-site, decent facilities in office, multiple technologies so you can move internally and learn.

Dislikes

Poor salary hike, people loyal to the company are under appreciated, no mechanism to match the salary of existing employees as per market standards no matter how skilled or certified we are. Lazy employees who are in good books with managers are not questioned leading to more workload on employees who are hard working. Regional politics and use of regional languages by senior management.

a good management gives good results. I like most of the things in HCL. 20kms to my home and flexible hours but the wrong person to manage project ruin everything.

Dislikes

No hike, no early release, Hcl does not follow the policies but we need to follow the policies. zero health benefits. worst project management. Variable pays are worst of all these negative points. Helping an employee to resolve an issue is hardest part. refering own people to projects. Healthy hiring but the bench strength is bigger than what they need.

1. Job security

Dislikes

1. Salary & appraisal: They will not increase the salary for more than 2.8-3 years. Fake promises to increase salaries and hike. No extra money for OT also. And also they are deducting variable pays every months without any reason (there is court case against HCL for that, you can read article on internet also). 2. Work life balance: In one word disgusting. We are working from morning 9 to late nights 9:30 average daily even one Saturday and Sundays. 3. Company culture: Fake promises and fake hike news they spread, and even after 2.8 years they are not releasing hike letters. 4. Work satisfaction: No matter how hard you work they will not happy and they will give more work to you. Senior managements are going home after 3:30 / 4:00pm but normal employees have to work till nights. 5. Overall: DONT JOIN THIS COMPANY....Read More

I got opportunity to restart my job after a break.

Dislikes

Client is God, even if client is doing things unethically it cannot be highlighted. Some of my colleagues were badly abused and exploited, when they complaint, they were released from project without taking any actions. HCL fill seats of projects with family or friends of client which results in bad culture and dirty politics withinproject. Here people work for their own survival not for learning or innovation. HRs in HCL never respond or rudely respond to queries raised which further demotivate the zeal of a person working at HCL. Appraisal cycles are always delayed and postponed. Moreover they also deduct your salary on name on EPB monthly even after you got 9/10 rating....Read More

The only thing I like about working in HCLTech is that the NAME speaks it all. Bass Name kha rahi hai ye ab apna nothing else. Family relatives colony walo ke samne 1 respect create ho jati hai that this person is working in Indian MNC.

Dislikes

Toxic work culture No growth within the organisation. Even after you spend more time then the required time to switch IJP. micromanagement illegally use of authority by senior person Unprofessional behaviour by senior authorities employee HR partner don't listen to employees query and only support the managers in any case. They'll hire you work a X profile and will get you onboarded in a project with requirement of Z profile. This being either for the offshore employees or the bench employees. Appraisal letter is delayed by half a year. WFO is only applicable on Males at NV location as they a policy in which females are required to WFH after 7pm. Although these female employees don't have any problem in staying in campus in case there's any event or DJ night or some celebration kind of thing. The management have a very soft side for female employees....Read More

Salary will not at all depends on rating, no use if you get Distinction performance or Exceptional performance, no good projects, no growth, even freshers will get good salary than experienced, difference college people get different hikes for freshers if you are coming from top colleges you will get good salary when you join as freshers...Read More

Work life balance is great but depends on project and the management. Great choice to Kickstart career for the recent graduate.

Dislikes

No relevance for the LPA mentioned and take-home salary. Too many cuttings and dispersion. Don't expect hike and appraisals every year. Just for name sale they release and provide perks.
