Lack of clear strategy leaves employees wondering and leaving - Anonymous employee Hitachi Vantara Employee Review

Hitachi Vantara is in a tremendous, albeit clumsy, transition. The recent re-branding from Hitachi Data Systems to Hitachi Vantara has left employees, partners and (most importantly) customers confused and wondering what solutions we are building and bringing to market. Current storage and compute lines have been stagnant for over a year while IoT and analytics solutions are not evolving fast enough. While newer executive hires in sales are encouraging, product strategy executives (brought in from GE) have produced little more than vision statements in 6 months. There is nothing for employees to rally behind and are constantly told that "it's coming". The good employees are leaving which is adding to morale issues.
