HCL Technologies is one of the best MNC to work with In India, In my experience so far I have received lot of exposure in terms of my knowledge enhancement, work life balance, flexibility and having stability to work. There is nothing like on and off kind here, they provide the employee friendly environment to work, as a very secured job. Thank you HCL. :)
Annual increments on performance basis are at the bottom of their lows, I can only say about (Finance) process. Not entirely. Maybe it's good in IT level.
It's Good & Satisfactory.

Nothing
Rating: 1/5 Review: Working at HCL Technologies has been a challenging experience due to multiple areas of concern: Work-Life Balance: Almost nonexistent. Employees are expected to put in long hours with little flexibility, making it difficult to maintain a healthy balance. Career Growth: Opportunities for promotions are extremely limited, regardless of performance or dedication. Career advancement feels stagnant. Compensation: Salary hikes and bonuses are rare, even for high-performing employees. This lack of incentive is demotivating and undervalues employee contributions. Work Environment: The workplace culture is far from ideal. It often feels toxic and unstructured, making day-to-day work more stressful. Leadership and Management: Poor leadership and ineffective management further add to the challenges, creating a lack of direction and support. Marketing vs. Reality: The company’s marketing campaigns and advertisements portray an image of growth, opportunities, and a positive work environment, but my experience has been quite the opposite. Overall, I cannot recommend HCL Technologies as a positive work environment based on my experience....Read More

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.

Yes job security is there, but the work culture is not upto the mark, you need to find relevant people for your doubts to get clarified.
Work life balance is miserable, specially if you are working in US shift, the timings of the shift shall make your daily routine puncture.

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

Only thing is timely salary.
Promotion is only for bootlickers, salary growth is negligible, work life balance is worst, managers are not worthy, useless and without any skills as they were bootlickers of earlier managers.

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.
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
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
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
