Pros
Company pays for certain certification reimbursements, Limited benefits.
Cons
Basically wherever you start is your ceiling for advancement, regardless of education or experience. Direct managers change or rotate every few months. Each manager seems to have a completely opposite style of management. Cost cutting always seems to be in the form of cutting something for the base level employees, not management. The company thrives on its employees being unable to do the math of how they are destroying the employee vehicles without any compensation. I averaged driving 1200 miles per week. Gas average 3.75 gal. Compensation is 50 cents for the first 250 miles, 20 cents for all miles afterwards. This 20 cents a mile drop was explained as a way to help "cut costs" from a manager in New York. The emails of quitting tech when this was first done was humorous as management kept trying to shut down the 1000's of chain reply's trying to educate upper management about the 20 cents insanity, and having management downplay it as a "few" upset people. So do the math: 1200 miles compensation $315, Gas cost, 281.25, Oil changes if you do it yourself(just product costs) roughly $20 added in every week. This leaves you with $13.75 per week ($715 per year) to pay for tires once a year $400 min, tune ups, routine maintenance( shocks spark plugs, etc) and saving for a vehicle to replace the one your driving once its on its last leg. the end result is you have to buy unisys a new vehicle every few years so you can keep working for them. The ticketing system is an outdated in house mainframe system that is code based and would have fit right in with the technology in the 80's film wargames. To add to this the company is losing contracts consistently and seems to have no direction save to keep doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result. I anticipate Unisys will not exist within 4-10 years without major changes..
