Pros

Hitachi Vantara is one of the top vendors in the world and is part of the Hitachi Ltd. corporation. It offers competitive salaries, as well as additional benefits such as private insurance, life insurance, pension plans, restaurant tickets, and more. Furthermore, Hitachi Vantara provides a diverse and multinational working environment.

Cons

It's a total mess. The new Inside Sales department was created with the idea of driving business, but its implementation into an old structure without clear and transparent explanations to employees who have worked in the company for 5-15 years was a mistake. The company is too big and moves very slowly, making it difficult to maneuver. Direct instruction on how to work comes from the US, where the market is completely different, and it cannot be implemented in the local EMEA market. Trying to prove its effectiveness is impossible.

Pros

Decent pay, average benefits, some autonomy to get things done

Cons

The entire leadership group that I was hired under was gone within 18 months and replaced but far worse examples. Micro-managing and then threatening corrective action plans as a means to force out those who they didn't like or earned too much. From a technology perspective, the storage products are average and inline with competition, but with far fewer reps in the field and no real marketing or inside sales to speak of, Hitachi Vantara is largely irrelevant in the Storage industry now.
