Pros

Great junior staff, made some good friends outside of work. London location for offices is good.

Cons

Beware - NTT DATA UK emails staff to post Glassdoor reviews. The London office and Business Consulting is a place where it is all about whether you suck up to the right group of people and do not question the lack of business consulting - it is as other reviewers have said, a bodyshop. If you are after low-end consulting like CRM implementation or change requests etc then you may like the place if you come and can suck up to the right people. During your interviews ask the following questions before you join: - Who do you compete against in the market? (they will try and say Deloitte or even Mckinsey! - very simple to to check, ask them them what consultants and directors are billed to clients at...then ask Deloitte and you'll see what low-end is) - What projects will I be staffed on? (again they will try and give you some 'strategy' or 'management' consulting nonsense...ask how many of these happen, what the size/value of these projects are relative to the overall business...you will most likely be put into a telco project doing low end change requests or IT stuff) - Who leads the business consulting practice and Impact? (look them up on linkedin and determine if you rate their career history etc)

Indeed I do ask our employees to leave reviews. However I would never influence or direct the content of their reviews in any way. The vast majority of our team here at NTT DATA love working here and are more than happy to share their views on Glassdoor. Some reviews are very positive, some average and also some that show us we still have work to do. All reviews are welcome but I would always ask that you share your views with your line manager or HR, that way we can all work towards improving everything we do.

Pros

The ability to work remotely when not traveling to a client site allows for a good work/life balance. The company is large and diverse with multiple opportunities available for those willing to work for them. The projects are engaging and the work is challenging without being overwhelming. There are plenty of learning opportunities as well.

Cons

Being a small cog in a very large wheel came sometimes feel like you get lost in the shuffle. In a company that thrives on mergers and acquisitions, it can be heartbreaking and life-changing in a negative way when your division is divested from the company and you are found adrift.

Pros

There’s great people there - But they’re not the management- With a couple of notable exceptions

Cons

Run like a boys club. It’s a body shop and nothing more. The whole business model seems to be driven by RFP’s and is a numbers game. They promote incompetence and won’t listen to those who know their field. Their model is to sell at all costs to ensure they make their numbers. Confusion reigns and it’s always someone else’s fault. The culture is appalling. It’s the most superficial place I’ve ever worked. They merged in a successful Design business - And have systematically set about destroying the culture they had and the good people are leaving in droves. It’s bizarre. Oh and if you want to be recognised. Better make sure you do all the extra stuff required of you in ‘magic time’ - I.e. your own. Or of course when you’re being billed to your clients....
