...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.

Negligible appraisal. No promotions . There is no standard of giving salary. Junior employee in same team with lower band could have higher salary than senior with upper band. They do not give any goodies on Diwali/new year. They do not give any money on referrals. Just the extra miles points.

In HCL salary breakup is a biggest scam. Because if you are joining company with 15 LPA, your take home will be around 95K. Remaining 30k is not assured to return to you. So please dont join HCL if your family is fully depends only on your salary.
