Pros

There is flexibility to take time off for family emergencies.

Cons

Without notice your job title may change, pay remains the same however your vacation gets culled down for example from 3 weeks to 2 weeks. Upper management changes frequently...In the last four years there were a total of seven managers that I reported to, many did not even visit the office for a one to one performance evaluation. For example I was on the east coast and the manager was on the west coast. Management is clueless with what is going on in corporate and they too feel threaten by the changes going on with the constant downsizing over the last 20 years. Be sure to negotiate your salary up front otherwise you may be sorry you didn't. The company is making a big push to outsource most positions to remote overseas locations so you got to think fast in the ever changing company otherwise game over, checkmate!

Pros

The best reason to work for Unisys is to get exp to find a better job. Most agents work there for about 6-8 months just to get the exp to find a much better job.

Cons

There are so many. Management is trained to work for upper management and not the agents. Its sad that the agents are doing to work and the managers are getting the rewards and not passing it on. The benefits are horrible. It seems that the company does not want to do anything for the employess's but the ex get everything they want or need. its very sad when they tell everyone there are no raises coming but then send out a booklet to tell us how many millions the CEO made.

Pros

Some genuinely knowledgeable and good people who want to do a good job and deliver good service. The recognition at an immediate line manager level that my contribution is appreciated and that the performance feedback process is taken seriously - personal good luck rather than what's reflected more widely.

Cons

Poor, disjointed leadership. Badly executed strategy. A lack of credibility with its workforce and in the market - also beginning to be reflected in parts of its client base. Lack of appreciation at the number of hours every individual is expected to work to get the job done - a 70/80 hour working week is not uncommon in most parts. An inability to distinguish between a lean workforce versus an emaciated one.
