Pros

Boutique consulting , old guard is still tech savvy, the core practices like MDM, IDQ and DI are still doing all the heavy lifting. There is good demand for technically skilled consultants in the industry

Cons

A lot of non revenue generating overheads like strategic consulting and business transformation verticals have been added to the IPS BU these are a huge drag on IPS revenue. There has been a systematic influx of suits in the IPS who have added zilch in terms of business development or even technical prowess but only serve as a dead-weight in the organization all they do is churn PPTs and talk .

Thank you for your review of working at Informatica. Structurally, our Informatica Professional Services (IPS) organization is essentially as flat as it was 10 years ago or more, which is amazing when one considers its growth over that time. We benchmark our business with the Technology Services Industry Association (TSIA) and Informatica is on par with our peer group. So the allegation that layers of non-essential personnel have been added simply is not borne out by the facts. Our strategic consulting services are provided by very experienced senior personnel (10+ years on average as Technical Architecture Managers, or TAMs). Our TAMs are the most highly requested resource for the practice from our enterprise customers. Our Business Transformation Services team uses the BOST™ Framework (Business | Operations | Systems | Technology) to provide a holistic approach that links technical architecture to business strategy. This allows Informatica to gain a much deeper understanding of our customers’ businesses and develop relationships as trusted advisors with more of our enterprise accounts. This, in turn, affords our people more opportunities to move beyond purely technical counsel into the realm of management consulting. The success of our IPS organization is proof positive that our approach works and – more importantly – that our customers place great value on it.

Pros

The company is global and yet small compared to competition. As a technical person, I find it easy to reach out to my WW colleague for help and support. Informatica products are best of breed which makes a guru like me proud to be working with such product.

Cons

They do not pay good in the Middle East. I know I can get a much better salary elsewhere but it's a choice I made to stay.
