Pros

Timely salary - last working day of the month If you are on bench, HR will proactively look and get you assigned to a project. The process at HCL will make you go through Job Based Certifications and courses, which is good and will help you.

Cons

Does not follow its own tag line "Employee first", its more like client first or money first. The appraisal cycle can get delayed for months. Low paying company according to its competitors. Many process related things are really slow at HCL. You will see many many post from employees other than HCL giving gifts, bonus and bounties but you will hardly or never see that from HCL in India. Officially gives 3 months notice period while does not accept more than 2 months notice period while hiring. Very small increments.

Pros

-They gave me employment I guess.

Cons

-Based pay off of other regions, not understanding cost of living in area. -No leadership or management for most of my employment. -Did not have proper amount of employees hired for the job. Did not replace when others left. -expected way to much from a skeleton crew. -threatened to withhold pay on multiple occasions. -Did not offer certifications, only training, half which didn't apply to our job.

Pros

Nothing to mention as pros. Only worst

Cons

Can we -ve stars as option to give to this company. They are many to list out: 1) Just are slave to there clients. HCL sends you to client location even in pandemic. No WFH and even when positive cases in same building, employees are complied to go. 2) No transport provided. Even when in pandemic use your own vehicle or use public transport. They don't care about employees but only want to make there clients happy. 3) Leaves policies are of client. Only 7 CH per year. Rest are all your leaves. 4) So that you don't use your own leaves, they keep policies that they would pay 3k per month if you would not take whole month leave. 5) 12 months prohibition period. Variable pay and hike only after that. In really this is 18 to 24 months. 6) EPB: Another hidden policy where they will take your monthly variable pay if anyone lwd is before March 31st. Whole monthly variable from April 1st to March 30 will be taken back. 7) The worst policies and trap served by HRS. 8) 3 months non negotiable notice period. 9) Many hidden policies and they closure your all ways to come out. You will feel trapped from all sides and will be waiting to resign and go out of here. Don't know how this company can be in top 4. Nothing can be more worst company than this. You will soon regret joining this organization and feel worst decision to join this company. Just RUN.
