Pros

You get to work for various clients

Cons

Company has no long term vision, it keeps buying other companies without really achieving any synergy from the purchase, it is trying to become a consulting company, but the core is still placing bodies at the client location. Outdated internal systems, make it very difficult to get anything done internally in a timely fashion. Tons and tons of bureaucratic layer, means no one in the top management is accountable for anything. Rampant and open nepotism, abusive management who do not have any strategy or vision, other than placing bodies at the client location. As an employee be prepared to work long hours and weekends but do not expect any career growth, bonus or pay raises. Benefits are stingy and expensive.

Pros

I have worked with NTT DATA as a government IT and project management consultant since 2018, starting with Cognosante before the acquisition. My experience has been very positive. I have had the autonomy to focus on the success of my team and my client, while also having the support of a large, high-performing organization. There are real opportunities for growth, strong training resources, and leaders who genuinely care about employees, clients, and the communities they serve. I have also been promoted during my time here, which reflects the company’s commitment to recognizing and developing talent.

Cons

As with many large organizations, processes and systems and can sometimes take time to navigate, especially during periods of growth or transition. Continued focus on communication and simplifying internal processes would make the employee experience even stronger.
