Pros

Some good people and decent office spaces, if sometimes a little out of town.

Cons

Take away the huge number of 5 star reviews with taglines like "Great Place to Work" or "Accelerate your Career" (these are obviously created by HR) and you have left a pretty honest appraisal of where DD is today. A company which did what it used to do well but has found it tough to pivot to the changing demands of the modern market and the competition. Much of the senior management is spinning around without a clear strategy and patting each other on the back - and this is reflected in the low spirits in the business as a whole. In Singapore they continue to have mass retrenchments at the regional level every year and the local office gets results which working everyone to the bone. Internal "transformational" projects are badly run and typically spiral out of control. If you could see under the engine there's no way you get in this car. There is little thought towards modernizing the operation: for example there is little appetite for flexible working and benefits which other companies in the industry do so well. NTT are taking successful pieces of the business away and no doubt what is left will be let go or sold off. The management will all be okay: they always are.

Pros

The people I came in with at Nexient. Boy do I miss Nexient.

Cons

NTT Data uses and loses its employees. The threat of layoffs is constant and there are soft layoffs happening on the bench at all times due to unreasonably strict bench policies that push people out. There is a very low amount of work because the sales team does a terrible job finding it. And what little work they do have they're shipping overseas.
