HCLTech

If you do not care how you are treated, no job security, not caring at all if they keep you as an employee,  then this is the job for you. I have never in my life worked for a company like this.. all they care about is cheaper labor and sending it off to India, regardless if they are capable of doing the job. You sit their and answer the dumb questions all day because the people they hired in India can not think for themselves, no common sense whatsoever. They are so quick to hand things off to eachother and not take any responsibility, even if it is their responsibility they will try and hand it off to someone.  Its literally a s... show. If they fo not know what to do on a certain task they will just leave it sit there hoping it will ho away or solve itself. You are basically hand holding these people through their career, even after months of them doing the job they continue to ask the ridiculous questions over and over and over again. I do not wish this experience on ANYONE !  If you had patience... you will soon find out that you will lose them very quickly. This company is VERY dishonest and no communication at all. They leave you kept in the dark.. there is absolutely no longer a career here at the moncton BSC, it's very saddening as I loved my job and the customers that went with it, but you are left stringed along not even knowing what is going on, given false hope and the whole nine yards.

HCLTech is known for its employee-centric culture, learning opportunities, and internal mobility programs that encourage continuous skill development.

While work-life balance may vary by project, overall HCLTech provides a professional environment, global exposure, and career growth opportunities, making it a good choice for both fresh graduates and experienced professionals seeking long-term development in competitive markets worldwide today with strong leadership and vision.

Flexible hours and ability to work from home made for a good work/life balance. 

I learned that in order to be a good manager you need to really care about the people who work for you. Integrity earns respect. I had the pleasure of working for a good manager.

Management of this company happens by accident. There is very little organized chain of command; From my perspective each employee is assigned to a contract, but the contract has no apparent manager so employees flounder without direction. Upper and middle management is very disconnected from the peons who do the work.

Workplace culture at HCL was not developed or promoted in the site I worked at. The culture was essentially inherited form the company HCL purchased. This may not be representative of all HCL locations.

The hardest part of my job was when the contract I was working on was completed; Looking to be assigned to a new contract. The process was not clearly understood and the opportunities not clearly defined.

The most enjoyable part of my job was working with a great group of people.

When you are working in a big company such as HCL, every day is a typical and critical day. The beauty of HCL is the work environment such a lively space for work stations, a lot of activities to improve peer-to-peer, peer-to-boss, peer-to-sub-ordinates relationships and vice-versa. There are silver, gold and platinum clubs to reward the best performers from time to time. 
Technically, I mastered MS-Office, basic computer trouble shooting and managing incidents ranging from normal to critical. 
The easily approachable and well-knitted management never lets you down. Co-workers are a perfect combination of competition and harmony at the same time. The hardest part of the job is the deadlines which can never be missed to let our heads lower n front of big corporate clients. The hardest part of the job brings us the most enjoyable part as well. The pressure we handle at such times joining our shoulders with peers, bosses and sub-ordinates makes us strong contenders for other outside competitors and connect us to our own people at the same time.

Good company with a lots of customer around the globe, however, lack of visionary leaders is what is bringing the reputation of company down. Also, there is no defined schedule for employees, they work whenever their manager wants and whatever numbers of hours they want them to work. If you say no to them, you'll get nothing in your appraisal. 
It's a manager driven company than process driven. That's apparently causing their attrition rate to go to 25%. Also, that's impacting them by loosing their customers as well. 

At HCL, it is not just our business but our social responsibility to ensure that our customers, particularly those delivering critical services—such as healthcare, pharmacy, food supply and distribution, and civic amenities such as power, safety and governance—remain up and running with the requisite IT support as the world battles the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic.

With several G100 clients in the Life Sciences & Healthcare space, we have been pushing the pedal in supporting them, enabling their employees and our staff supporting their IT to work remotely, building capacity through a swift scale-up of their patient-facing applications, provisioning additional Tech capacity for new clinical trials, accelerating in-flight trials, as well as building-up IT infrastructure for expanded capacity in hospitals and facilities treating COVID-19 patients.

Work is great when you have a good client, and mostly working with the client and not so much with the HCL Tech people, your reporting manager may or may not know what you actually do. Typical day at work is as per assigned by the number of tickets you get from Service Now. Work culture is work, as long as you have a straight guideline of the responsibilities that is outlined in your contract. You're good to go. The hardest part of the job is that when you're not a direct full time employee of HCL and is an outsourced hire; this blurs the outlined responsibilities which leads to more work for less pay. The most enjoyable part of the job is that, there are other outsourced contract employees that are in the same boat as you are. 

The company is decent if you're just starting out and looking to gain some initial experience and exposure in the field. It gives you a basic understanding of industry workflows and can help build your resume, especially if you're fresh out of school or switching careers. However, beyond that, there’s not much to look forward to. The pay is below industry standards, and there’s little to no room for growth or advancement. Management tends to overlook employee development and feedback, and the work environment can feel stagnant over time. Benefits and incentives are minimal, and there's a general lack of motivation or long-term vision. While you might appreciate the learning curve in the beginning, it quickly plateaus. Overall, it’s not a place to build a long-term career, but rather a stepping stone before moving on to better opportunities elsewhere.

HCL is a good company to work for if you are looking for the opportunity to work with a variety of clients. The company has a strong reputation in the industry and has a wide range of clients across different sectors.

However, one downside to working at HCL is the lack of growth opportunities. While you may gain valuable experience and build your skills, it can be challenging to advance within the company. If career progression is important to you, it may be worth considering other companies that offer more advancement opportunities.

Overall, HCL is a good choice for those looking to gain experience and work with a diverse range of clients. However, if you are looking for a company that prioritizes career growth and advancement, it may not be the best fit for you.

HCL has been a major contributor in my career. I have been performing various roles in this company be it network engineer, consultant or a senior manager managing major IT infrastructure for various clients, the passion of working with HCL has always been the true motivator. The experiences gained over the last decade and more have made me more seasoned in this industry. Wonderful people to work with has been always an enjoyable experience. Going through various challenges and market trends has given enough strength and sustainability in this company. I have always cherished the good times spend with all my co-workers who have always been like an extended family for me.
