Always I had a salary issue. Still HCL TECH has not provided me my client/captive allowance of December 2022. After relieving, company do not have to keep an employee salary amount but HCL Tech has deducted my client allowance without any proper reason. HR & manager also do not give their proper response & does not get back to their employee regarding the query asked through email or call. Work culture and management behavior is very poor. HCL Tech cheat their employees in terms of salary. Salary was the main reason to resign HCL TECH.

Dislikes

...ork and they call it as design(R&D). 3. No hikes even after 10-12 working daily. I got just INR 500 increased in my monthly salary after 2 years of working 4. Also why leaving organization, they use 3 months notice period as their advantage even though you're not critical in that project. They use this silly and cheap tricks to retain employee. 5. Please avoid this company if not really neccessary
