Managers and team lead are worst person in commerce product, he can torture you like in hell, if you are not agree what his thoughts he will destroy you like anything. There are lot of people's are hired only for giving torture you. You have to work regular 9 hour wor and daily 4-5 hour extra hour is compulsory, if cleint meeting is there you have to work 24-7.

Good annual full body checkup for employees and their family

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

HCLTECH is a good company to work with. The work-life balance is good, but it depends on the project/account. The work atmosphere is good.

Dislikes

poor work-life balance, below-average salary and benefits, limited career growth opportunities, inconsistent management quality, concerns about job security due to project-based work, and a perception of inadequate salary hikes even with good performance
