Former Employee – worked at Unisys full-time for more than a year

Pros – Lower management was generally very good, and my coworkers were generally nice.

Cons – The company is on shakey financial footing, and is bidding contracts in an unrealistic fashion.
 Long story short, they are working their salaried staff to death to compensate for their lack of planning, and so that they do not need to hire more head-count or pay hourly staff overtime. They weren't even apologetic about this. There was no training, and miniscule or no raises.

Advice to Senior Management – If you want your business to be successful, you need happy, well-trained and loyal technical staff.

Advice to Senior Management – Current CEO was hired to make the company viable again, no question that he succeeded. New leadership with proven skill in growing revenue is now needed. Until then the company remains in constant crisis mode, promoting no career growth for the average employee due to constantly changing (or non-existent) goals and objectives.
