The interactive culture, Job security and skill development is something I can brag about my company.
Everything else except the goods I mentioned above. Especially the salary benefits, people who are newly joining and people who are already having higher salary might get what they wanted.. but people like me who have average salary (below 30k) and average 5 yrs experience, can never expect anything good since they think I don't deserve it.

There is nothing "good" to say regarding this company.
One of the worst companies in providing their employees with salary and benefits. Very poor management and work life balance , not listening or responding to the problems of there employees and discouraging or not releasing employees to move to bench if they are not satisfied with the work . Citing various bogus reasons to retain there employees in the same project by not releasing them and forcing them to work overtime with no extra pay....Read More

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

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

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.

Company policy implementation is really bad. They suddenly imposed the new policy. If you raise any concern they will not bother you. And the most painful part is EPB or engagement performance bonus. You just need to forget about it. They will not pay you the whole amount. Only 10 to 20 % of it will can expect.

There are no perks or no benefits. People cannot understand under what criteria the promotion and appraisal are given . In my term i have seen a team lead on a analyst position and an general agent who reports to him as a senior analyst i really don't know how and lead has less salary then his junior team members
