Pros

Great Colleagues. Free Soft drink/Coffee/Biscuits. Kitchen with plates and cutlery provided. Microwave & toaster. Occasional lunch provided to employees on Fridays. Start and finishing times are not micro managed (This could change, due to some staff abusing this whilst I was there).

Cons

Long hours. A lot of overtime required. Upper management doesn't want to know you. You're just a number and easily replaced. Bullying from inexperienced team leaders that are under pressure from upper management to get you to work harder and give up your weekends for low hourly overtime pay. Poor work/life balance. Base salaries are well-below industry average and most are forced to work overtime/on-call to supplement their income to make ends meet. This is a controversial one, but worth mentioning. Company saves money by exploiting 457 migrants to fill higher paying roles (E.g Team Leader role) and pays well-below industry standard.

Pros

I have worked with NTT DATA as a government IT and project management consultant since 2018, starting with Cognosante before the acquisition. My experience has been very positive. I have had the autonomy to focus on the success of my team and my client, while also having the support of a large, high-performing organization. There are real opportunities for growth, strong training resources, and leaders who genuinely care about employees, clients, and the communities they serve. I have also been promoted during my time here, which reflects the company’s commitment to recognizing and developing talent.

Cons

As with many large organizations, processes and systems and can sometimes take time to navigate, especially during periods of growth or transition. Continued focus on communication and simplifying internal processes would make the employee experience even stronger.
