Salary on time. Good peers
More than 6 months delay in appraisal cycles. No appraisal if you are L3 band and above 20LPA. My last two appraisals were zero. Management politics. Management too much egoistic.

Healthcare
Everything else is a dislike. There is no skill development, managers behave like 'sarkari babus'. Higher management is unreachable...too many restrictions...you can't even open YouTube (imagine!) Many more dislikes but I don't really want to waste my time n energy listing them down here

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

Job security nothing more than that and so many projects have very pathetic work environment managers are egotistic and not a manager as skill just based on tenure spend their life in HCL and they don’t have good increment or roles so all the frustration to the new resources who have much package and knowledge.
No Increment even achieved top rating in the team. No promotion, No on-site opportunity (just for favourites)

HCLTECH is a good company to work with. The work-life balance is good, but it depends on the project/account. The work atmosphere is good.
poor work-life balance, below-average salary and benefits, limited career growth opportunities, inconsistent management quality, concerns about job security due to project-based work, and a perception of inadequate salary hikes even with good performance

The company offers robust training programs, certifications, and upskilling opportunities, particularly in emerging tech (AI, cloud, cybersecurity), helping employees stay competitive.

We can learn some other skills via some platform like Percipio. This is an advantage.
Salary hike is extremely worst. I'm very disappointed about that. And, they are very conscious about getting work from employee they treat like a machine.

Work life balance, best company for those who want to enjoy life and dont want any growth in life
HR team is worst in HCL. No promotions, no growth, they deduct salary without any justifiacation. You will be hired for X work and will assign you Y work!!!! No clarity why hired X skill set manpower when required Y skill set.

Salary on time.
Nothing is in favour of employees and slogan of company like super charged progress seems super charged in salary deduction. There is no policy in HCL and whatever HR will say that is the policy even they don't follows there made policy. I am 10+ year of experienced person and faced strange incident in HCL that HR changed by salary structure on day of joining and believe me I didn't have another offer except to accept the same. Overall HCL is not a company and is a shop....Read More

Nothing which can be liked.
Leave policy is not good, very less leaves. Bench policy is not at all good, there is always a situation if you don't get the project you have to leave the company. No increment letter received since last 2 years.

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
No any better appraisal and looking for better opportunity and carrier development

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.

It totally depends on the project where i got a very understanding team where work used to be like a child's play rather than a daily labour. Special thanks for my managers who made me work with integrity.
Event hough we go up the ladder in the sense of job titles the salary range increases like a garden slug walking over a wall.

You can start your career in a multinational company with this training.
Training is quite good but you will only get service desk job after thus training. You will not get any domain job.

Best company for freshers who want to build carrer in a right path. Exceptional performers will always be rewarded with bonus and certificates. Job security is best in the market.
Promotions might delay even after recommendation. Experienced resources will face gradual hike in the pay scale which is not close the market rate. Work life balance might get affected during month end period due to workload.
