Pros

Depending on the account the amount of work will be, when we all started working there the working environment was really good, the managers used to be very friendly, very polite. They used to strictly follow the UST principles. Talent Pool concept is great.

Cons

Nowdays some of the managers are being very unpollite, the working conditions are not the ones they used to be. They promissed a salary increase every year. I lasted almost 2 years working there and I never got my salary increased. When they hire new people, they offer better salaries but yours is not increased, eventhough you are an expert on the project. You never, NEVER get any compensation for the extra hours worked (When I leaved, they owed me 6 days of extra payment)

Pros

The company is already shifting from services to products and platforms business, with the CEO driving the change directly. This transition is visible and is steep. The upside to this transformation is the company already creating meaningful opportunities for people to grow new skills and take on more strategic and value-added work. The key is to lean in and make full use of the resources available, including client universities, hack-a-thons, ideathons, and skill transformation programs, to stay ahead. For internal talent, the opportunities in product, platform development, and consulting are abundant, across both existing offerings and new solutions.

Cons

the organization is going through a painful transition unlike anything it has experienced in its 26-year history; while this change is necessary to win in the market, stronger support through the transition is an area where the company can improve and focus.

Thank you for such a thoughtful perspective. It’s encouraging to hear that the shift toward a product and platform-led organization is visible and creating meaningful opportunities for our USsociates to build new skills and take on more strategic work. Enabling this kind of growth is a key priority for us, and we’re glad to see the impact of initiatives like learning programs, ideathons, and hackathons coming through. We also recognize that transitions can be challenging, and providing support through the journey remains a priority. Your point on staying grounded in UST’s values truly resonates. Our values of humanity, humility and integrity continue to guide us as we evolve. We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts.
