HCLTech Senior Test Engineer salaries in Bangalore / Bengaluru (Updated 2025)

Likes

Job security is good, work culture - no much pressure or tight deadlines. Timely salary.

Dislikes

Annual leaves are only 18 and company holidays are 6 + 4 (optional) which again requires manager permission. 3 months notice period is big headache as no company wants to wait for 3 months for recruitment (not even HCL). Very less hikes may 5%-6%. After first year don't expect any hikes.

...WFH facilities.But, some people needs to visit office due to lab dependencies. All employees are getting their standard salary. Right now there is no lay off, even though many employees are in Bench. They are providing training on daily bases who all are in bench.

No matter how much effort you keep on project, when they feel you are not require they will place you in bench. If they need you again they will start the play back games..

Dislikes

...rom last 3 years.Worst insurance policy. No proper shift allowance, if we ask H.R to explain how my salary got splitted they don't have answer. I am just eagerly waiting to get out from this organisation once i get other opportunity.

The company is open to innovation and readily adopts latest technology. I love the fact that I am a part of a team that markets reliable, high-quality products and has a global client base.

Dislikes

Compensation is decent, but growth is slow. The work pressure is very high. Sometimes, I have to work 14 hours straight in a day.
