Pros

nothing it is literally going down the pan - i.e. NTT the parent are taking the bits they want and the rest is history...

Cons

The CEO used to come on stage at the yearly update, waving a cricket bat around [supposedly a cricket fan] yet it so happens that at the same time, he was telling everyone it is not a democracy and we are all to do as we are told. So what happens when we all do as we are told, but due to shocking management, lack of leadership and the fact they all looked after one another when the trouble arises - he comes back on stage - minus the cricket bat - but pointing his finger at the audience and letting them know the fact that DD is going down the pan - is all our fault - for doing as we were told. It has nothing to do with still trying to sell HW and some old fashioned out of date portfolio made up from the 'look out for another' management team. What a joke - you got what you deserved Coulsen.

NTT DATA Response

Thank you for your feedback and I am sorry you feel this way about Dimension Data. The yearly update that you refer to was in-fact at the time of the 2013-14 Ashes Test Series with a test being held at the time of the event where Australia were winning. The use of the cricket bat was a prop as part of an introduction to the presentation as the CEO is Australian and was presenting to a UK based audience. Dimension Data is going through a transformational journey as many companies are doing in the market today. With our parent company, NTT Group, investing in the business we are confident we will continue to develop and deliver high value solutions for our clients that help them achieve their goals. The door is open if you would be willing to discuss your views with Andrew or myself, we are genuinely keen to hear all open and honest feedback. Victoria Ward - HRD Europe

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.
