Pros

The people and the job are always good to work with

Cons

Horribly run. The Executives running the company have no interest in you as an employee. You are just a number. They will lie to your face about your value while planning to cut you lose. HR is a joke. Shady practices at the vey least.

Pros

Opportunities to do more advanced technical work in some areas because HCL promotes from within

Cons

They are so eager to promote from within because HCLTech pays in the bottom 1-5%ile of market rate for any skilled tech position. They are a company that consistently demonstrates they have no confidence in being able to make money *without* financially destroying their most talented people. A complete waste of time to work here for longer than 2 years under any circumstance. Exec Leadership openly lied to employees and investors on FY 2024 Q3 call regarding '10-15%' raises that never came to any high performers across several business units.
