Pros

You get to meet amazing co-workers who you will interact and share knowledge together. And you also get to meet amazing customers where they come from different background and skills.

Cons

Since I started working directly with the company it has been a total nightmare. Insurance premium is a joke. Every paycheck half of it goes to insurance and what they are offering the state offer better for less. The pay rate is a joke, been told that I am well compensated for the job that I am doing, while new hires are making more than the older technicians that has been with the company for years. Have seen technicians come and go to the company and never last a month, sometimes a couple of days. I have come forward to complain about the rate situation but all they say is that I am well compensated. And all they do is pee on your leg and tell you it’s raining. They started micromanaging everything you do from hours to expenses. Recently they introduce me into a program that I told them consistently that I want to opt out, in which they refused. After months of waiting for a answer on how the mileage work, they got back to me after more than 5 months just to tell me that the program I will be earning less reimbursement for the same amount and sometimes even more miles. All they say is “not for debate” and if I don’t want it then I can just leave the company. They do not care about their employee, they want to paint a beautiful scene but is not how it all looks. They want to rub they care about their workers but they do not care. They have no plan of giving increase. And they keep cutting down your expenses for them to save a couple of bucks. When you show them the proof and common sense. All they say is if you’re not happy then you should leave. Is a joke of a company. Been working for this company for 4+ years and got currently hired for less than a year. And I was much better as contractor but now contractors are getting micro managed by only working 40 hours and if you do more than 40 hours, they will make you go into a conference and explain why you did so many hours and than they will remove those extra hours from you. They do not have plans of paying what the technicians are worth for their service and time. Gas price, parking, maintenance, Vehicle premium, etc Everything is going up while you still making less and less. Company they do not appreciate the work you do and the travel you have to deal with. Vehicle depreciate so much with the constant driving you have to do on a daily basis. Don’t expect to be well compensated for the time and travel you invest for this company because you will get little to nothing back in return. Also don’t expect any increase since they have told various times that nobody is getting a raise this year even next year there won’t be a raise.

Pros

My boss was great. I was not there long but I felt really bad leaving because having a great boss is rare. I had great work-life balance. I liked what I did. I left because I was offered better salary and healthcare benefits (that I really needed at the time) somewhere else.

Cons

Cons will depend on the team and the team members. Mediocre benefits.

Pros

If you enjoy mission driven work, the clients are the best part of the job. Many employees are smart, collaborative, and genuinely committed to delivering quality outcomes. The work itself can be meaningful, and there are a few strong individuals who work hard to honor client commitments and carry out contracted deliverables despite internal obstacles.

Cons

Across the last 4+ years, Unisys has experienced consistent leadership failures across nearly every Business Unit (BU). These failures show up in a lack of accountability, unclear direction, and decisions that directly undermine client trust. Employees are often unable to demonstrate or sell the capabilities Unisys markets, including those tied to industry awards because the organization cannot validate or deliver them. The company undergoes employee reductions every 60–90 days, creating instability, eroding institutional knowledge and workloads being consistently shuffled to other already overburdened staffers. In Q1 of 2026, Unisys dismantled its public sector sales team, resulting in the loss of long-standing clients and a steep decline in delivery credibility. A major concern for job seekers is the company’s approach to employee protection. Over multiple years, I personally experienced and am aware of numerous gender, race, and ADA discrimination complaints submitted through the Employee Ethics Portal. Unisys has one individual responsible for reading complaints and conducting interviews, and in each case I witnessed, the situations were left unaddressed. Out of necessity, multiple layers of leadership across different BUs were additionally informed, still no action was taken. Instead of intervening, leadership allowed retaliation to escalate, resulting in financial loss, emotional distress, and professional harm to multiple employees. Advice to Job Seekers: If you are considering Unisys, approach the opportunity with clear expectations. Some employees are talented, and some clients are rewarding, but the environment presents real risks. Employment here requires independence, resilience, and the ability to navigate unclear direction and limited support.
