Pros

I honestly cant think of any

Cons

Company has a hard working culture just don't expect overtime or standby payments for all your hard work. The yearly bonus is derisory and apparently arbitrarily allotted. You won't get any thanks, or training, or career progression or indeed any interest in your well being; work/life balance is non existent. Management style is, stereotypically, about what you'd expect for an Israeli company and largely involves being shouted at. Staff scuttlebutt has is that you need to be Jewish to get on at Amdocs; sadly this really does appear to be true. You'll be working on an outdated, proprietary software stack so even if you can convince someone to teach it too you (harder than it sounds), then it's absolutely no use anywhere but Amdocs. Based on previous examples redundancy is going to be statutory minimum so it's not worth waiting for that either. I'd have rated them lower than 1 if this site allowed.
