Pros

The work life balance is actually pretty good (not as much travel as most companies) Lots of very smart people. Benefits are amazing. From my experience, I've always had support when I needed or asked for it. There are a couple of great leaders, not many but some.

Cons

Very different company than it was 3-4 years ago. There has been an obvious transition away from focusing on people = the individual doesn't matter anymore. Developers, consultants, and managers have become utilization/money hamsters. Not saying this doesn't exist in other places, it's just become more obvious here. Horrible review process. No one knows what is going on, including the consulting directors. Way too much micromanaging. Having to submit our time every single day is a bit excessive. Pay used to be average, but has started to fall behind. Lost a lot of good people this past year, and will probably lose more.

Pros

Great culture... I got to work with a number of people that I have worked with in the past at another Hitachi company and thoroughly enjoyed the teams/practices I supported - great people. The company and leadership walk the talk as it relates the "care and feeding" of their employees around mental health, work life balance, diverse representation with multiple Employee Resource Groups, visibility in communication, etc.

Cons

Unfortunately, when I started at Hitachi Solutions in December of 2022 it was right before the massive layoffs in tech companies in the US which continued into 2024. Initially there was some concern I believe about amount of communication related to the "state of the union" so to speak (because everyone was spinning at this point) but the company leadership pivoted quickly to engage with all employees on a monthly basis providing the opportunity for any and all questions from all employees. In the end I was caught up in a recent lay off, which was tough for me as it's never happened to me before, but I get it... it's business/not personal. Maybe a 3rd time at Hitachi will be the charm... ya never know!

Pros

Flexible work schedule; remote employment

Cons

Lots of layoffs - very unstable job security; poor leadership drove a very stable company almost into the ground
