Pros

Can just jimmy your time sheet and put in 8 billable hours a day and as long as you have over 90% utilization - no one gives you a hard time Work-Life Balance Good Health Insurance If you want a place not to work too hard and get a decent pay then this is good place to cool your heels.

Cons

Management has no clue what you are doing Project can go anywhere. As long as you are billable and it is profitable - no one cares. However, if profitability goes below target then hell breaks lose. Customer Sat surveys happen but they are all jimmied up to make them look rosy Lots of Politics and Power Games

Pros

Great culture... I got to work with a number of people that I have worked with in the past at another Hitachi company and thoroughly enjoyed the teams/practices I supported - great people. The company and leadership walk the talk as it relates the "care and feeding" of their employees around mental health, work life balance, diverse representation with multiple Employee Resource Groups, visibility in communication, etc.

Cons

Unfortunately, when I started at Hitachi Solutions in December of 2022 it was right before the massive layoffs in tech companies in the US which continued into 2024. Initially there was some concern I believe about amount of communication related to the "state of the union" so to speak (because everyone was spinning at this point) but the company leadership pivoted quickly to engage with all employees on a monthly basis providing the opportunity for any and all questions from all employees. In the end I was caught up in a recent lay off, which was tough for me as it's never happened to me before, but I get it... it's business/not personal. Maybe a 3rd time at Hitachi will be the charm... ya never know!
