HCLTech reviews

Many -non competitive pay - If you have no choice, go there. If you have a choice, stay away.. far away. -many promises - very few deliveries (I can say I watched them promise the world to my employees and then fail them time and time again only to follow up with more empty promises often times to get someone to do more work than they should or were hired for and then not compensate them. HR - their HR department exists for one reason, and that is to keep them out of court; otherwise, you'll be lucky to get a response. Games - I had one employee give two weeks notice then after she was gone they deposited her pay, then pulled it back. She called my crying over it and I had no way to help. This is one of many instances. -No integrity - from what I saw, they will lie and lie to the client and move numbers around to dodge SLA's and work the numbers. Example (They intentionally omitted a team in the daily SLA report that was terrible so that the averages would be in the green and the client wouldn't dig deep enough to question. I gave them a year and then left as quickly as I could. It seemed like a good opportunity regardless of what i'd hears; however, it's worse. They don't take care of their people at all and that's not a company I would set foot in. If I can't take care of the people I'm leading, then I can't be successful and neither can they.

Manager is utterly unavailable if help or escalation is needed, and mostly unresponsive to anything other than system-generated requests or escalation from higher about an issue. This is not uncommon across multiple teams and org structures. Pay is generally at or below the low-end of market rate. Rampant sexism, especially from native Indian co-workers (of both sexes, interestingly enough). Internal advancement for non-Indians is next to impossible. Very senior management approval is required for the most simple and mundane of tasks. Labyrinthine internal systems don't work with each other well, creating lots of wasted time and frustration banging your head until you give up or figure out the one combination that actually works (or remember that in some systems hitting backspace/delete is considered a SPECIAL CHARACTER and NOT ALLOWED, and will also SIMULTANEOUSLY send you back a page in your web browser because WHY NOT.)
