Pros

Unisys is liberal in its hiring practices. It stresses non-descrimination on the bases of sex, race, religion, and sexual orientation. I believe it tries to provide the best benefits it can afford to give.

Cons

There is a lack of leadership. One often feels that the company or department one works in is running rudderless. The one main project I was involved in was thrown together without forthought or planning. It involved traing new people to take over a number of functions, but no training material was prepared and not enough time was given to the training. I also feel that the management doggedly sticks to its outsourceing policies when they are at times to the detriment of the company, its customers, and employees. An example would be that IT fixes must route to India where the problem is worked by workers who are following a script and not by a worker who is onsite and who might have greater intuition about the problem.

Pros

Fantastic technology with many many exceptional technical people before layoffs started and continued. Flexible hours, with immediate managers supporting technical people.

Cons

A lack of effective marketing. Roseville treated by corporate as a cash cow without adequate investment in 2200 products. Bad news not released. Regular downsizing. Ineffective corporate leadership.

Pros

Unisys has ongoing contract vehicles and are deeply embedded in some Federal agencies. If you are on the right contract, they are flexible about work location.

Cons

Management seems to manage under the axiom, "How little can we provide and still get away with it?" Employees are asked to bear cost burdens that should be reimbursed by the company (mileage, assignment-related commuting costs) and reduce benefits and salary increases for the people doing the work, yet provide bonuses to management. There is little accountability for non-performance, and the problems are worse the higher up the chain you go.
