Pros

As a virtual worker one often works from home, flexible work schedules, engagements are exciting work, administrative work is relatively easy, good access to technology and training materials, approachable and accessible management, challenging work assignments, most colleagues are extremely hard working and knowledgeable

Cons

Poor communicaton, senior management manages by rumor, work plans are inaccurate and not up to date, no accountaibility to staying on project, many sixty plus hour weeks are expected, little gratitude or acknpwledgement for hard work, management is approachable but does not really listen or understand reported issues and concerns, clients are placated and at times mislead, HR is a joke and does not support staff, review process attempts to be SMART but falls far short of more modern companies

Pros

Great infrastructure of systems and centralised resources. You definitely notice it when you've moved on from Unisys to a new organisation. It goes without saying that on an individual level many of the people were great and I learned a lot from professionals who probably didn't realise that they were mentors or role models.

Cons

where to begin - hours, morale, poor leadership, having to go to work in the mornings with a fire extinguisher on your back because you never knew whwre the next one was going to break out. In fact, to illustrate the point, every time someone got yanked from what they were doing, or was 'stood up' for important meetings, the most most common reason given (like that made it all ok) was that they had been called to a 'fire drill' Pur-lease!

Pros

The are the best reasons to work for Unisys are prestige...its roots are at the beginnings of the computer industry. Unisys has excellent firm collateral. They have lots to offer and education seems to be extremely important and there is open access to the education content. The people are very knowledgeable and in my group have a get it done attitude. One issue is finding the right resources to solve the problem, but once you have identified those resources they are very willing to help. I have have no bad experiences yet. I'm very happy.

Cons

The downsides of working at Unisys, right now its the share price
