Pros

Used to be a fun quickly growing workplace but old respected CEO was fired during integration for political reasons and MBAs with spreadsheets taking over and nobody likes it. It is a paying job and company is well backed by large Japanese parent but run like US chop shop now.

Cons

Customers and employees are quitting and looking for alternatives. Internal coordination has overnight stopped with integration and projects are painful to watch. No new clients are signing up hurting career opportunities Company thinks Canada is just another US state. Terrible HR polices nickel and dime. Internal support mechanisms including email all in India and are terrible. Company used to be special, now a 2nd rate outsourcer.

Pros

The people I came in with at Nexient. Boy do I miss Nexient.

Cons

NTT Data uses and loses its employees. The threat of layoffs is constant and there are soft layoffs happening on the bench at all times due to unreasonably strict bench policies that push people out. There is a very low amount of work because the sales team does a terrible job finding it. And what little work they do have they're shipping overseas.
