Pros

I can’t think of a single thing.

Cons

Sales teams and operations are completely out of sync. Sales teams pitch and sell contracts promising unrealistic metrics for the price and then operations is stuck between two tiers of leadership pushing for opposite things, hitting metrics or being cost efficient. HR is a total joke. Policies don’t change, but their interpretation does, with zero notice, so one day you’re paid for one thing and the next you’re not. There’s no number to call anyone so you get stuck in an email battle with HR reps that don’t read detailed descriptions and respond with absolutes without even understanding the problem. It takes 8 months and an exhausting amount of stress and frustrated escalations to management to sort out clear cut, simple pay issues even when you have all the proof in the world. Employee surveys are also useless as nobody ever follows up. Upper leadership loves to run the company as lean as humanly possible which results in everyone under them being overworked and severely underpaid for the work/roles they’re in. At the same time, they’ll spend money on some of the worst telephony and scheduling systems I’ve ever seen. You’ll be expected to provide 60 hour weekly support but only be paid for 40. For those in on-call roles, you’ll be expected to be on-call but HR will tell you that your position doesn’t qualify for on-call pay and you’ll be given the run around and never given a proper resolution. Self-respecting professionals, don’t touch NTT employment with a 10 foot pole. Shady business practices galore towards both their own employees and their clients. Truly disgusted and embarrassed to have this company on my resume.

Pros

It’s a job, and you will get some kind of paycheck twice a month. You will work some great colleges

Cons

NTT is not strong in the Salesforce world. It’s a real disconnect with NTT Senior Leadership. Even their partnership with Salesforce is absent. From lack of sales management and sales expectations (quota and goals) to an unexplainable bench policy. Even the management team of the salesforce practice has no power to make a decision what would better their salesforce presence. Unfortunately, they have a burn and turn reputation building. They are at the low end of the pay scale, and they don’t do raises. They do not encourage or support any training time. It's very much a one-way relationship, the employee gives, and the employer takes. Their EVP is completely disconnected from the business and those employees. I have watched employees work 70+ hours on a project for months, and then the moment they have completed that project, there is not worked to offer them, they are a bench. They expect the employee to find their own next project. If not, in two weeks, you are unemployed. Everything is offshored. Which there is a place and need for that, but even HR? Moreover, you never really get to talk to them. They only email. Benefits are functional. Pay is low. The direct managers of the practice have no decision power to run that business. Needed to travel to the corporate office for an internal client meeting, was told that I could but on my own dime. If it can't be charged to the client, the company will not pay for it. Oh, but wait, NTT invested $$$ into the race car. How nice of them. It's good to see they have their priorities in order.
