Nothing
No sense of belonging, career discussions or even interest in employees. The management and the organization need to work on themselves and their direct reports, invest time in their careers. I’ve been a top performer and have been rated so. However, increments are the lowest inspite of the company doing well. There is no interest in career development. Performance appraisal and increase cycles - ask before joining .. if you have worked for 3 years your increment will be given barely twice and the percentage will be that you get for less than a years work. Policies aren’t transparent. There is no night shift allowance. No COVID leave. So empathy for those effected. No bereavement leave. Yes, that’s correct. No empathy for the families effected.. on just keeps using the 18 annual leave and then going on a leave of absence; the organization or management don’t care. The HCL internal HRBP team is as good as non existent. There is an HR in the team to do the HRBP’s role. If you care about having some piece of mind and a good career, then you know what to do. If you don’t, then may be consider joining here....Read More

Overall work culture is good in HCL but i feel if you are under management role there is alot of politics, drama and bad experiences that you will face. I have been here for 2 years and it’s nothing what i though it would be. Additionally, the appraisal letters are released after 1.5 years for any employee here which is not fair at all
Work culture, partiality and politics within management No work life balance in my team particularly No room for growth in management No appreciation No flexibility

Nothing at all.
Favouritism. Unskilled people deployed in HR, who are from BA, ops. And QA backgrounds. They don't even know the true meaning of HR. Just being favourites of the boss they would enjoy all benefits and neither themselves nor the boss would do any work. Too much toxic of a culture. Their HR department needs quick overhauling to turn the game.

There is nothing to like about HCLTech. Same story of non deserving people who are driving the organisation in absolutely wrong direction. Zero increment in 3 years and forget about promotion. They make you work for more than 12 hours and ask for accountability for every minute. They have created an hourly file on teams for time entry which makes you feel that you are a slave. Very toxic culture. The team that leads DEI has people like Abhishek Mishra who do not leave any opportunity for demeaning you and passing derogatory comments. Having told to the AVP of L&D, he also passes similar comments pertaining to the damage to LGBTQ and Females. Absolutely a no no place to work....Read More
Toxic culture. No increment in 3 years. One has to prove every minute and accountabilities. Abhishek Mishra and Puneet Khatri (L&D head) use derogatory comments and cheap LANGAUGE. Make you feel slave. No work life balance. Sycophancy is celebrated over hard work.

Work Culture here is good. People are friendly and suppportive, leaving few exceptions. Working hours are flexible. Hybrid working system is employee friendly.
Salary and benefits and promotion is far below the market rates. They give equal percentage to everyone irrespective of their work. Work recognition is not up to the mark. Permanent work from office may start soon.

Regarding The US project, Please Note: if you are ready to work as a slave, You are a perfect fit for this company and Note : ( you don't have an allowance for US projects Night shift). You don't get your "Variable pay" Every three months, they create new policies without any information. One of these policies seems like a way to steal your salary under the name of EPB adjustment Monthly For example, it starts with 500Rs and may increase based on your salary range. The HR and US project manager are the worst Both are well-trained to fool the employees. I can write more about this kind of issue, But I don't have time. please check with other comments and employees...Read More

Verizon Project sucks big time so do your findings before you join or else you are stuck.
HCL has all this support project and suck blood of you all the time, manager and team leads have no ears wats so ever to your concerns all they worry about is SLA, Cafeteria sucks big time even though it's not heavy on your pocket, Management is wast of time, Transportation has no idea to route employees correctly as there are some morons sitting there and have no clue how to roster, work life balance has no value at HCL...Read More

Interview was good, interviewers didn't tried to exhibit their expertise. Convincingly good hike during joining.
HR Team is not good. Forced me to join immediately but no quick joining bonus. Usually people use personal phone number for official communication rather than internal communication tools.
