Pros

Pros section is unnecessary for this company. If you are currently unemployed and looking for a job, please do not join this company, I would suggest you to continue interviewing and please join another one because even if you get selected, you will be fired as they have only short term projects for which they are hiring you and once the project contract ends you will he fired irrespective of your performance. THIS COMPANY IS A JOKE!!

Cons

Company will hire you for a short term project which will end in less than 3 months and then ask you to find something internally or ask you to get lost, they do not care about you at all FYI- your performance doesn't matter, even if you have performed exceptionally well you will be asked to leave. Resource management group is a joke, they do not understand the difference between Java and JavaScript, according to them both are the same as they have "Java" in them Don't even think of increments or promotions, forget about it. If you are currently unemployed and looking for a job, I suggest you to continue interviewing with other companies and ditch HDS if you care about your and your family's future. HDS will make sure you do not have a future and make you suffer throughout the tenure.

Pros

Can learn new skills on projects, if you take the self initiative. Decent bonus pay-outs - although always short of full target. Margin is going up (although revenue is going down and layoffs are going up)

Cons

Company says they value diversity, but is not diverse at all. Almost all US hiring is Indian. We are told to bring over "landed resources" from India, so that we can pay them 15% - 20% less than US workers. They really abuse the H1 Visa process. Management is very poor and most good leaders and resources have left the company over the years. In over a decade - received zero raise 6 times. When there are raises they are 1 - 2%. Multiple failed mergers and divestitures - Hitachi Consulting, Hitachi Data Systems, Hitachi Vantara, Hitachi Solutions, Hitachi Digital Services - and now Global Logic - which I am sure will be unsuccessful as well. When I started Hitachi Consulting was $500M in revenue. Currently Hitachi Digital Services is $500M in revenue. Literally zero growth in over a decade. Lay-offs every year. Stay away from this company, as obviously something is not working well.
