Pros
Home office, regular payment of salary, foreign colleagues were ok to work with and mostly reasonable.
Cons
My opinion is based on the culture within the HPIM team in Bulgaria. I moved to that team from a small dedicated team shortly after the launch of DXC. In my professional path I have never seen and felt such a concentration of people who hated their jobs as I experienced in the Bulgarian HPIM team. I have also never been in another team where I was told that I need to lower down the quality of work - sometimes to really offensive to the intelligence levels. Work engagement was low and people were massively demotivated, to a great extent due to weak management and unclear and contradictive work directions. Having worked in transformations before, I clearly understood the environment of change the team was undergoing, but the athmophere was very often a complete chaos and had nothing to do with smooth transformation. I tried to adapt but at some point it was really challenging and I can understand why many people lost direction. You never knew if you were doing the right thing. People massively relied on gossip, "feedback" and personal relationships for advancement rather than real, realistically measured accomplishments. Any libel could result in total change of attitude towards you and/or get you out of your job immediately, so any one who wished to survive had to be extremely careful, but the risk was present at any time. Overall, low professionalism and work ethics. Also I was surprised to see how people were speaking really offensively, aggressively and provokingly. Sometimes it really could get freaking. Regardless of the overall high satisfaction and praise from external stakeholders regarding the quality of my work, I left the team feeling in complete disgrace due to the building negative attitudes towards me. When I saw this was not my place, I tried to leave with dignity, but the humiliation was great. Months after I quit, I was in utter surprise and shock to understad on several various occasions that the attitude was due to obedience to external untrustworthy sources of information that infiltrated certain people working inside the company and that were libeling my reputation. This completely shuttered my faith in the management because if the management cannot even check the information against the facts and real business results a person is bringing, what can we say about the level of profesisonalism. The reactions from people did not disprove the revelations. I hope the things changed since then, but I remain sceptical to some degree as I hear colleagues that I respected, also left. Anyways, good luck to the team, but I would have appreciated a more ethical treatment. Shortly before I left, I have found another job internally, but I was persuaded to stay which in the end of the day was a wrong decision that I took. Getting an internal move in Bulgaria is also very difficult as seats are pre-arranged for "recommended" people.
