Pros

People - the coworkers that I have engaged with over the past years were fantastic. Formed some really great relationships.

Cons

Blind Leading the Blind - Leadership and company direction are completely rudderless. From the Japan Board to all the Executive leadership - none of them have a realistic view of how dire straits the company is. Their executive leadership is a revolving door with no consistency. Highly Political - The changing leadership landscape has created political power plays all throughout the organization. The poor leadership is just doubling down and hiring their friends at this point. Lack of Diversity - The company is lacking viewpoints from various backgrounds both professionally and culturally. Top heavy - too many VP's and not enough people willing to roll up their sleeves and actually do the work. Disconnected - Org Silos all throughout the company. They literally can't get out of their own way to accomplish some of the most basic blocking and tackling.

Pros

Decent pay, average benefits, some autonomy to get things done

Cons

The entire leadership group that I was hired under was gone within 18 months and replaced but far worse examples. Micro-managing and then threatening corrective action plans as a means to force out those who they didn't like or earned too much. From a technology perspective, the storage products are average and inline with competition, but with far fewer reps in the field and no real marketing or inside sales to speak of, Hitachi Vantara is largely irrelevant in the Storage industry now.
