HCLTech Java Software Engineer Reviews

Likes

Major clients provides Work from home. In some clients there was good skill development scope. But it is very minimal

Dislikes

If you want explore more and learn new things, HCL Tech is not correct option. Majority of projects only have BAU operations. For developers, there were no projects to upskil their development skills. If you wanted to grow as a Developer (in any technology) don't choose HCL Tech.

Give us hybrid module

Dislikes

Lack of night shift allowance despite working during odd hours. Required to work one full weekend per month without additional pay. Working on holidays only results in a compensatory off, with no extra allowance provided. Consistent pressure to multitask, but minimal interest in addressing salary hikes or allowances during discussions.

hikes and promotion are given after 9-12 months from the completion of appraisal. even if you get salary hikes, they are very low and below the market standards even if you get the highest rating. and the the hike or promotion effective is from after the 6 or 9 months of appraisal completion date which is a loss for the employee.

Their is nothing to like as such in HCL technologies as most companies provide same facilities in and out.

Dislikes

The worst disastrous working culture I have ever seen in HCL people are least bothered about employee sentiments. Verizon project is good but the management is worst they don't know how a process is run.

It has various projects, so you don't have to worry about it. If you are keep updating yourself with your skills set. You'll always get the work.

Dislikes

Hike and appraisal, it never happened on time and didn't get updates about the delay, sometime it delayed for 9 months also and got hike very less like 1-3% even if you are top performer. It's all clients centric, so no one will be there to defend or protect you if client doesn't like for any reason. Managers are just puppet of client and higher management. Training and course will be pushed to you and no one will consider that if you are completely occupied in your work . It comes in ad-hoc based and you have to complete it in time by doing it in night and in weekend sometime. Management will push you for new idea and lead generation and despite considering the nature of project it is considered as a mandatory activity to do otherwise your appraisal will get impacted. It has 10-15% variable which hardly 1% people are getting in full. Earlier monthly variable was getting full but later that also made with rating based and you will never get 100% as you can't add idea and lead generation always....Read More

Hcl was good in before 2022 and the project managers knows how to get business and things

Dislikes

Current mangement especially Suresh Khanna who is taking care of utmost project is very poor. He doesn’t mind to bring new projects to HCL rather he wants to chit chat with girls and provide all promotion,increment,OT and on-site opportunities. There is a girl in his team who don’t know to work. If someone ask questions he behaves like hitler. This project is completely hitler rule no one can question him. He himself says I can do anything. Whoever sees this post kindly forward this to senior management to take necessary action. We are not living in hitler rule...Read More

Based on project and manager your skills will develop. There so many learning platforms and certification opportunities but they won't allow you in skill full projects

Dislikes

I worked in Cisco projects, there are so many disgusting managers in the Cisco LOB. They won't allow you develop your skills and professional life. you won't get a project which suits your skill set. If you are in Cisco projects then you are wasting your valuable time. Some managers will ask your work history every hour. They will evaluate each minute. So many restrictions on mobile usage. They will irritate you all the time....Read More
