Good job opportunity has been experienced by me throughout my 2yrs 10 mnths career journey till date
1. Too much gossips and office politics happen. 2. Managers don't support when unseen escalations happen, the entire blame goes on us. 3. Our designation is stagnant, we are not even promoted to next level . 4. salary pay is vry low according to our efforts.

Salary credited on time. Hybrid work-mode with enough leniency. Cab Facility. Affordable food at Canteen. Huge campus at Jigani.
Freshers aren’t appreciated. Hardly any skill development or learnings provided. No support during my initial months. Full of politics. Average working experience with the employees/seniors. No Team outings. No gatherings.

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

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.

One thing only that no one cares about you mean to say when are you coming or going to office...now it's upon you takes it positive or negative....HCLT or Wipro these companies are kind of Desi companies...if u r 3.1 + above band then 15-20 % salary they will make as bonus and wipe out
No salary increase from past 2 years, its luck for you if your manager hear your query, also 1-2 years of experience HR will be top of your head doesn't matter how much experienced you are

Job security, international client base, on-site, decent facilities in office, multiple technologies so you can move internally and learn.
Poor salary hike, people loyal to the company are under appreciated, no mechanism to match the salary of existing employees as per market standards no matter how skilled or certified we are. Lazy employees who are in good books with managers are not questioned leading to more workload on employees who are hard working. Regional politics and use of regional languages by senior management.

I got opportunity to restart my job after a break.
Client is God, even if client is doing things unethically it cannot be highlighted. Some of my colleagues were badly abused and exploited, when they complaint, they were released from project without taking any actions. HCL fill seats of projects with family or friends of client which results in bad culture and dirty politics withinproject. Here people work for their own survival not for learning or innovation. HRs in HCL never respond or rudely respond to queries raised which further demotivate the zeal of a person working at HCL. Appraisal cycles are always delayed and postponed. Moreover they also deduct your salary on name on EPB monthly even after you got 9/10 rating....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 .

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.
