Pros

From 2014 a number of locations worldwide where you can move theoretically. Flexible work schedule if it's not coming to production release. Good, skilled people you can meet on your way. Formally declared values.

Cons

No career path. Despite it's declared formally and even evaluations happen... also formal. The salary is being kept as low as possible for years and your attempts to talk about it to your manager will lead to some arguments that you have to care of profitability of the company. When a project ends you're fired. There is internal employment service but it doesn't help due to low qualification of HR and intention of other PMs to find the cheapest resource for the shortest period, ideally borrow part-time. No one can be sure about his future in the company, even middle-top management. It doesn't matter how you accomplished a project or how skilled you are. You will be forced to sign agreement to leave company if you can't find new project internally within short period. Just a business - nothing personal. HR are complaining of attrition rate and trying to analyze reasons. Surely they clearly understand the root causes but pretend they don't. The entire motivation policy of the company actually says: "Do as much as you can, we pay you as low as current local labor market allows, go away." If you come here and you have no personal relations to top management you will waste your years trying to work hard with even not promised reward or promotion.

Pros

- Nice and respectful culture - The company trusts its employees, no need for a lot bureaucracy when taking days off or sick leave - If you are good, they are going to do anything in their power to keep you

Cons

- Parent DXC company is very strict and outdated, Luxoft systems are very good, but sometimes we need to use DXC systems that are mostly sharepoint and awfully designed Service Now. - After DXC took control, everything is Windows, you are lucky if you get a Mac system, and they hate Linux. You need to sell your soul and get many management and client approvals and exceptions in IT to be able to use Linux. - If is a huge company that serves many clients, so obviously, you are going to have totally different experiences depending on the client you work for
