...ally force you to quit. They would hire a junior on a higher package than you. Variable pay and Appraisal is scam here. They gave Apr'21-Mar'22 appraisal on Oct'22, and that's kind of habit for them to delay it 1 or 2 quarter. Variable pay wold is 10% of your salary, and any time you quit, you would end up loosing more than half of your variable. Variable paid on yearly basis and will be 10% of your salary. So, anytime you quit company you would end up loosing more than half of your variable. They usually pay variable in June, and notice period is 3 months. Also, they paid 95% variable in 2nd rating.

...all variable pay component as bonus, which is almost 15 to 20 % of total CTC. Appraisal cycle is Apr to Mar, but variable pay is paid annually once in May or June salary. This year they have deducted 5% variable in 2nd rating. Means, only those who got top rating got 100% variable component. Also revised CTC letter given in May or June month (6% hike is maximum in top rating). So, whenever resouce resign (with 3 months notice period), he/she will loose that year variable component. Example : Resigning in June end after getting variable pay of last year. So, by the time resource will leave (Sep end), 6 month Variable pay (10 % of CTC) is gone. Resources with 14 year of experience are paid 21Lakh per annum and they are ready to hire 7-8 year resources of higher package like 24 lakh. To summarize, after 1 or 2 year, HCL indirectly ask to leave, by paying you way lower than market standard and there is no market correction. ALSO, THERE IS NO HIKE IN SALARY WHEN PROMOTED.

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.

Bad Culture....Top level enjoying like government No Job security - 4 weeks in bench ,then slient layoff Montly variable pay - Engagement performance bonus ,though u got above 8 rating most of the times deduction above 50% Annual variable pay- for sure they won't give Instead of giving 1000 crores as charity ,better hcl need to consider their hard work employees pain ....2023 paper released on 2025 January...that too for 2% and no change for most of the employees ....which shows where hcl is going.... Wondering why all IT companies not taking care their employees but focusing only the top levels like ceo,delivery managers...salary increasing in crores every year Never ever recommend to anyone

...atever 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.
