learning opportunities.

Dislikes

No salary hike even if your ratings are good. If you are a senior then you will not get complete variable pay. You might get promotion and more work responsibilities but it will be a dry promotion without any financial benefits.

Learning opportunities are plentiful. You get to structure your salary if you are in higher band, gives you the flexibility to optimize savings.

Dislikes

...ssure to do more work with less resources. The loudest voice is always right :( If you're covering your parents through mediclaim policies, an amount will be deducted from your salary for contributing to the above. Working with Support staff like IT, EHS, HR, etc., will test you patience. It will be like working with Govt. staff - no ownership, bad response times and what can you do without me attitude. You will be forced to come to office or you will be asked to apply for leave (even if you're working from home) - this happens in certain accounts. Management is Autocratic - my way or the highway. People are forced to write resignation letter, if they are unable to be placed within 2 months when they are in bench. This is layoff, but with a twist.

You will chances to learn new or latest technologies. Able learn process and procedures to handle new clients or Bidding projects etc.

Dislikes

Salary hike won't happen properly . Even if they give it will be less than 4% and can't expect when you will get a hike. Sometimes it take years together to get a hike..All depends on in which LOB you work for and which project is it long term or profit margin etc..will come to picture.so getting a hike has got multiple parameters. If all parameters fall in place you get a max 4%-5%.

Dislikes

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
