HCLTech Salaries in India (Updated 2025)

Likes

The plus with HCL is like if you are lucky and get a good client/project you can have a good work life balance.

Dislikes

Their are multiple cons in the company - 1. They will deduct money from your salary unnecessarily in the name of variable which they say is rating based. I personally never got less than 9/10 in quarterly ratings but still they used to deduct around 60% from EPB. 2. Zero hikes / No promotions. In my almost 2 year career no hikes happened. 3. It is top heavy company. There are 2-3 key people in every project who decides the fate of others. Full of egoistic people in management.

Nothing as such.. Just they provide peanuts salary on time and have lucrative infrastructure.

Dislikes

Bare minimum salary hikes. No promotion. Office politics too much. No job security, once you are in bench or rollout from project, your job will be in danger. Work life balance is pathetic... If you are working in support project they can call you anytime despite your shift gets over.

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.
