      Current Situation Of IT industry
      I’ve been actively applying to multiple IT companies every single day through platforms like LinkedIn and Naukri.com. With 3 years and 9 months of experience in the industry, I expected at least some response — but unfortunately, I haven’t received even a single call from a recruiter or HR so far. It’s disheartening to see how challenging the current situation in the IT sector has become, especially for those of us who are experienced and still eager to grow and contribute. Can anyone suggest some tips regarding this?

      The plus with HCL is like if you are lucky and get a good client/project you can have a good work life balance.

      • Work-life balance - Excellent

      Dislikes

      Their are multiple cons in the company - 1. They will deduct money from your salary unnecessarily in the name of variable which they say is rating based. I personally never got less than 9/10 in quarterly ratings but still they used to deduct around 60% from EPB. 2. Zero hikes / No promotions. In my almost 2 year career no hikes happened. 3. It is top heavy company. There are 2-3 key people in every project who decides the fate of others. Full of egoistic people in management.
