Pros

Most people are pleasant and helpful.

Cons

Very poor leadership. NTT calls the shots. The Senior Leadership Team only manages up and repeatedly demonstrate that they only care about themselves. The same people get promoted over and over. They laid off the one and only SVP who actually served the employees vs. taking from them. You will likely pay for SLTs mistakes and the CEO’s overzealous BHAG commitment by either being laid off or not receiving a bonus. I’m not disgruntled, there is still a lot to be thankful for and I will miss many of my colleagues. If I could change the past, however, I would NEVER have come here. KEEP LOOKING.

NTT DATA Response

Thank you for taking time to provide your feedback. The Senior Leadership Teams at a regional and global level follow all employee feedback very closely, including your suggestions and others left on this board. Like many organizations inside and outside our industry, we are transforming the way we do business. Change and transformation are hard, even with the high-caliber people we have leading and driving our journey. That change is driven by a purpose and vision to become the leading global systems integrator and managed services provider for Hybrid IT. That goal is a reflection of the market-leading capabilities we have at Dimension Data and across our sibling NTT companies, and we look forward to working even closer together to achieve our combined vision.

Pros

Great pay, decent product/market offerings (although market has similar if not better), and good teammates. Really good marketing, it's exactly what they want you to think it is. They tell you everything you want to hear while maintaining eye contact.

Cons

There are 4 management styles and only one is effective, helping people achieve their personal goals in a rewards-based environment. Management rules with an iron fist and is entrenched in old-school, outdated practices. The culture is work hard not smart (if you consider that one). Unnecessary and unneeded high-pressure in areas where it's not needed. The good part is it's a matter of time until an outdated model breaks itself. Conclusion: It's essentially the opposite of whatever your favorite company is.

Pros

Not many these days. I am so glad I left. This company has lost a lot of credibility and is crumbling.

Cons

Used to be a good company. Unfortunately, those days are long gone. After they acquired Nexus, they lost their way and became very "top heavy." They promoted a bunch of people to "directors" and ultimately had to go through layoffs. The HR department spends their time trying to win "best employer" awards for recruiting purposes rather than actually serving their employees. Here's an idea... why not spend your time on actually making your company excellent instead of focusing your time on trying to convince someone how good it is. The best awards you can have is the praises of your employees, and you will win awards with much less effort. They lack useful systems and expect their employees to work extra hours to compensate for it. This is a highly political organization. In some lines of business, they employ sketchy business practices. If you refuse to participate in such practices, they'll find a way to eliminate you from the business.
