Amdocs reviews

Amdocs is suffering from chronic mismanagement, and abuse of workers is rampant. - On-call schedules result in very frequent long (more than 50 hours) work weeks - Resistance to change is excessive and arbitrary, and nepotism abounds - Ratio of managers to workers is almost 1:2 (and actually is in some areas). - Applications in use are ancient and aging, corporate doesn't want to spend the money to fix the problem, so instead they hire people to perform data fixes 24/7 instead of actually fixing the bugs. - People in management reserve the right to demand your presence on a "bridge" at any hour of the day, regardless of your plans. - Those who are hired as programmers are often only used in a tier-3 support capacity. - All of the above problems lead to a stagnation in personal growth and skill-atrophy. - Management doesn't want to hear what you think or want, they only want you to do as you're told and pick up the phone when you are called. - Management always hearkens back to when things were much, much worse whenever a problem arises, and then uses that as a pretext to avoid solving the problem. - The company chases people away in droves and then chooses not to back-fill those positions. This makes fewer people do the same amount of work. - The company uses the word "professional" to mean "do what I say without question," and they do so repeatedly at all levels of management.

At its worst, when it comes to work ethics and fair play. The more you stay, the more de-skilled you would become, especially if you're into management
