Pros

Unisys has a lot of sharp, hard-working, and very competent employees. The company is capable of delivering innovative services by utilizing expertise that is already in place if they will start to invest in solution development again.

Cons

Unisys prevents itself from being successful by re-organizing every year. The company is currently in a death spiral-- every quarter, top line revenue goes down. Unisys responds by cutting costs (layoffs, eliminating services, etc.) so the top line revenue goes down again the next quarter. Then Unisys cuts costs again. It's a downward spiral. Don't pay attention to profit statements when checking long-term health. Profit is being derived by cost-cutting. If there is no top-line revenue growth, then Unisys is approaching a cliff when existing orders dry up and cost-cutting has stopped the company from replacing them with new business.

Pros

My boss was great. I was not there long but I felt really bad leaving because having a great boss is rare. I had great work-life balance. I liked what I did. I left because I was offered better salary and healthcare benefits (that I really needed at the time) somewhere else.

Cons

Cons will depend on the team and the team members. Mediocre benefits.

Pros

The company does a good job communicating what their ongoing and ultimate goals are.

Cons

Advancement opportunities don't seem to be the most clear or abundant, but it's also convoluted and could heavily depend on which team you're hired onto since it's a contracting company.
