Pros
There are no pros of working at HCLTech
Cons
For 3 yrs you lived and breathed the spirit of HCLTech giving your all to projects, exceeding targets. The promotion was documented, hard-earned culmination. But life often writes its own scripts. A sudden, critical family emergency forced to tender the resignation. It was the necessity for well-being and that's where the proclaimed "employee centric" values evaporated. I was informed that because I was serving notice period, the promotion which was already earned and awaiting release could not be processed. The reason? a cold, rigid HR policy that halts promotion letter release upon off-boarding. Why an earned promotion must be honored? It isn't about the next few months of salary; it is about the dignity and the permanent record of hard-earned recognition. A promotion signifies the value I delivered while I was an active, contributing employee and still is till the day you are parted. So why should a company stop your letter release. It is an official endorsement of my performance that should stand regardless of whether I choose to stay or move on. It is kind of ironical that in your employment letter/Service letter, they mention "wishes for your future career" and then they damage the career by withholding a deserved reward that bolster my career trajectory. It is utterly contradictory. It suggests that once loyalty is no longer guaranteed, the organization is perfectly willing to erase the past to save few months of payment.
