Pros

Can learn new skills on projects, if you take the self initiative. Decent bonus pay-outs - although always short of full target. Margin is going up (although revenue is going down and layoffs are going up)

Cons

Company says they value diversity, but is not diverse at all. Almost all US hiring is Indian. We are told to bring over "landed resources" from India, so that we can pay them 15% - 20% less than US workers. They really abuse the H1 Visa process. Management is very poor and most good leaders and resources have left the company over the years. In over a decade - received zero raise 6 times. When there are raises they are 1 - 2%. Multiple failed mergers and divestitures - Hitachi Consulting, Hitachi Data Systems, Hitachi Vantara, Hitachi Solutions, Hitachi Digital Services - and now Global Logic - which I am sure will be unsuccessful as well. When I started Hitachi Consulting was $500M in revenue. Currently Hitachi Digital Services is $500M in revenue. Literally zero growth in over a decade. Lay-offs every year. Stay away from this company, as obviously something is not working well.

Pros

It's a massive company with many opportunities.

Cons

I was hired on December, Join in January, and was laid off by the first week of February 2026. To get this job, I went through 3 interviews and presented a marketing plan to my hiring manager. Once on board, I attended a week long marketing planning meeting and met the team, While there, I found the dynamics very strange. They would all trash the former boss and one particular person on the team did not seem to like me. I received 2 assignments from the director while my own manager did not speak to me. I passed along my assignment to my manager and asked he can take a look and make sure I was doing everything ok. He did not offer much guidance. A month later, I was let go because he said "I wasn't picking things up fast enough."
