HCLTech reviews

Management and HR don’t exist… The worst company ever! I don’t know how is possible that big companies still hire HCL to take care of their projects, I assume they’re cheap, but this has negative consequence especially on the employee! The entire management staff is in India and they don’t care about you, a lot of issues on payslips (less money, never more :D), and to fix this, it will expect you an excruciating threads of emails, begging for your own money. In case you get a promotion, your contract won’t change and you won’t have an increase of salary…basically, you’re just working more! The annual bonus is a mere mirage, even when you work harder then ever and your metrics are perfect, every month you will receive the default answer: “you’ll have it next month!” You will be lost ESPECIALLY at the beginning: trainings are ridiculous, done from someone not even in the country, any of your questions will never have a response…as I said…LOST. Minimum by law: no bonus, no perks, no sick paid, no health insurance, 20 day holidays, work on bank holiday. I was not completely sincere about perks, you have free sneaks :D You can’t trust the company, in case you need some papers for every possible situation, for bank, revenue or visa you won’t receive assistance, the HR is completely useless! At the end probably you will receive what you need but every time you will have for sure to fight for it.

They are equal opportunity employer (literally) - meaning no matter how well-educated you are, how much experience you have they pay you less than a new engineering college graduate. Regardless of your experience, they will make you work like a technician or low-level employee. They will make you work like a slave - overtime, weekends, without extra pay. Some of the managers are very unprofessional. One of my managers did not meet me on the day of joining and for the next 6 months when I was supposed to be working on the same project. He tried to do everything to avoid meeting me. Another supervisor shouted at me though I was much more educated and experienced than he was. They move you from project to project, place to place without any consideration for your family. They don't give much for relocation or living expenses. With the salary they give, you can't even rent a room in the garage in the areas of the country like Boston, SF Bay area, LA, etc.
