Pros

1. The people 2. The people 3. The people The reason I joined? Everyone I talked to in the recruiting process, from recruiter to VP cared about getting to know me. This may sound simplistic, but I felt like with other companies I interviewed with I was only a number. This should give you a clue about the type of people that work at Hitachi.

Cons

1. Compensation is lower than other companies - bonuses seem almost nonexistent 2. Feedback cycle is very rigid 3. The PTO system needs work - the accrual limits and carry-over payout limitations are frustrating 4. Takes a year to start 401k matching

Pros

Decent pay, average benefits, some autonomy to get things done

Cons

The entire leadership group that I was hired under was gone within 18 months and replaced but far worse examples. Micro-managing and then threatening corrective action plans as a means to force out those who they didn't like or earned too much. From a technology perspective, the storage products are average and inline with competition, but with far fewer reps in the field and no real marketing or inside sales to speak of, Hitachi Vantara is largely irrelevant in the Storage industry now.
