Deltek reviews

As other reviewers have identified, Deltek has lost focus and ability to deliver product to market. Part of the issue is old technology - they have never taken the time to address an outdated, bloated database structure or other product issues that will prohibit them from market growth. The larger issue is their relentless focus on outsourcing work to the Phillipines. They lay off employees with long tenure and replace them with offshore workers. There was a layoff of 100+ employees in November 2012 and another layoff of 100+ in January 2013. Many of the employees that were let go will be replaced by offshore counterparts with less experience and knowledge. Deltek has experienced quarterly layoffs for years but the more recent ones have been substantially larger and have appeared to target those with longer tenure. Finally, Deltek does not believe in investing in it's people. They do not offer career paths, training or educational support. It's a place to collect a paycheck, not a place where you are excited about the product or the company.

Management has an extremely short-term vision: Revenue and bottom line mentality for the quarter only. No conception of employee trust or loyalty. Absolute disdain for anyone with more than 3 years experience with the company. Not willing to invest in people with paid-for professional development. Corporate Value of "Speed" . Just rush it out the door, even if the product is loaded with bugs and not properly tested by individuals in the USA with intimate knowledge of the industry. Everything is being offshored - they're nice people but have no conception of the federal contracting environment.
