Unisys reviews

Management was poor. Most managers are not in the same physical location as you, so you never get to meet them face to face. In order to get a straight answer from anyone, you had to "jump through" a ton of hoops. No career advancement what so ever. Favoritism among team mates was very evident.

The organization was full of 59-year-old white males who haven't worked anywhere else but Unisys/Sperry/Burroughs since 1975 and who have no idea how to compete in a market, thanks to the near-monopoly mainframe business that throws off a billion dollars per year in cash flow and hides the fact that the Systems & Technology organization is overstaffed by about 5000 people who really didn't appear to be producing anything. The senior management of Systems and Technology (at the time) were absolutely clueless about how to run anything other than milking the 50-year-old mainframe cash cow. Clueless. The only senior exec who knew ANYthing about business, management, or the technology industry was the president of the division, George Gazerwitz, but he was so autocratic and universally feared by his people that when he retired, there literally wasn't a single person on his staff that knew even rudimentary business concepts. They simply never were exposed to competing or running anything in their careers.
