There are plenty of projects and challenges to learn from.
Management is worse. Manager’s decision is always last in case of any conflict, junior employees don’t have a say. HR is just for name sake, and never replies on time. Non of the policies that are there for employee’s benefit are followed. Work life balance is terrible.

The company is very good if you are in your learning journey. However if you are a experienced resource who believes in a professional work environment, good work life balance, appriciation for your good job. HCL is not the place for you. Pros - great place to learn, in many projects there will be short term or long term onsite opportunity.
Cons - No work life balance,work culture is too Desi,no annual hike(3-4 %) if you are having highest level if rating. Higher manager has a comman stretegy to get work done which is "Danda Maro, pressure banao kaam ho jayega" Customers will push you to achieve SLA even without listing to the implementation plan and pre requisites and no one is going to taka a stand for you. Overall my experience was that i learned a lot during first few months of my tenure but I and most of my team mates had to work at least 12 hours a day even on weekends and in return we never got any appriciation even if we completed more than 15 super complex project well before the agreed time lines. So i am never going to join back HCL....Read More

It provides all benefits like other services based companies. Job security is good. Company culture is good.
Work life balance is not good. Lot of internal politics. Worst seniors at management level. They are old fashioned and not fit to the company. Simply wasting their career and spoiling others as well .

Good annual full body checkup for employees and their family
Recruiter promised that I will be receiving the entire variable pay for the first year but I received only for a month and from second month I have not even received 50 percent. No hike/night shift allowance for E3 and above bands . Every project have 3 managers (reporting manager, service managers, who will be part of HCL for 10 or 15 years ) , and who used to micromanage to an extreme, they will ask you to work on company holiday and they won’t approve your comp off or Pay for the holiday. Once the project is stabilised , they will release the highly paid resource to the bench...Read More

Nothing in particular. Honestly I have never worked with such org whose company moto of employees first is actually the other way round.
One of the worst leaders you will come across in your corporate career who cares the least about their subordinates or agents. All managers are puppets to their executive leaders. No hikes or minimum hikes which we are ashamed of even sharing with our family members. No promotions or if promoted absolutely no hike for getting promoted. They say Promotion is not linked with annual increase. This Company is a joke. They change annexure terms or policies every year so the minimum hikes you get at the end does not reflect any change in your take home. Infact we see decrease in our take home year on year. Wish I could write more. Please think 100 times before joining....Read More

Flexibility, work-life balance, no one bother who is doing what, heaven for manipulating people who don't want to work rather distribute here and there who has setting with Managers.
No skill development, no group activity programs, poor management, low salary hike, effective 6 month annual appraisal, monthly/annual bonus deductions, more like a worker factory. Management lacks and communication skills but learned social engineering.

I am giving my honest rating, If you don't want ruin your career please don't join here. Senior management is not approachable. 12 hrs working time.. sometimes they asked weekend support without any monetary benefits. You can't learn any thing apart from the project. Salary is very less. Hike also not good. Co-workers are not friendly. No welcome kit also provided at the joining.

The entire organisation is having an extremely backdated work culture and people are extremely political and escapist there.. All junk Projects are taken from the market with extremely bad and absurd estimations and then they grill the people working in those accounts... Never join the Oracle OU practice led by Chockalingam Singaram who is a complete busterd and escapist... He doesn't have any capability to bring an account and begging to other verticals for project allocations......Read More
