Pros

Good stepping stone until you find a different job.

Cons

I'm pretty sure they get their business strategy from Dilbert comics. A multi billion dollar company who stopped providing coffee and water for it's employees. A network engineers one tool to do their job efficiently is a computer and they refused to provide docking stations and sufficient memory to make our lives easier. They ask for you to do the work of someone who is 2 pay grades above you with promises that you'll get a raise only to be told that there are hiring freezes. Extremely difficult to get paid on time. Not once this year was my pay correct, either management didn't approve it or payroll messed up. To open a ticket with HR to get it fixed took days and then you were mailed a prepaid debit card which gets left in an unmarked envelope outside your house. Extremely frustrating to have to wait for pay and then have to go to the bank to deposit money when normally everything is direct deposit. Management took away work from home because they needed to be able to reach out and 'touch' us - because a company who specializes in providing IT Services can't possibly think of a way to do that without walking into somebody's office.... Forget about calling helpdesk to get anything fixed on your computer, even Atos own helpdesk is awful. Tickets will be opened for days with no response and then closed with no reason, no contact information, if you call, you'll spend 1/2 a day with them getting no where.

Pros

Nothing. Working from home used to be nice. Now they forced all of us into their new cattle warehouse.

Cons

Gosh, where to start... Work life balance? Nope, work you to death. Then demand more. Location? Irving. No thanks. Used to work from home. now leadership wants to show off their shiny new prison. Pay? Horrible. And they stole from us by canceling our sick time benefits carried over from Xerox with no real warning. Micromanagement. Loads of that. Idiotic obsession with employee profiles and other inane crud like that. In short they treat their people like disposable items. Just discard when you've extracted every last bit of blood.

Pros

There are some very good people who work here. They are all abused. They have closed most of the offices, so you "get" to work from home. There is no compensation for your internet or other home office expenses. Yes, I know this is the "Pros" section. It's the best I could do.

Cons

A continual reduction in compensation - pay has not kept up with inflation. Raises are only through advancement, but advancement is denied (I tried promoting one of my team members, but I had missed the unpublished 'deadline' and was told to wait for another 7 months. It was denied then too without explanation). PTO - we lost the ability to accrue and now have a use it or lose it policy. Company holidays in the US went from 10 to 9. 3 of those are 'floater' holidays now. This allows them to not pay OT for some workers on the day after Thanksgiving and the day after Christmas. PTO accrual cap was cut from 7 weeks to 5 weeks. We used to reach 5 weeks after 5 years of employment. Now it's 10 and in that process many had their PTO reduced. 401K match used to be made with each paycheck. Now it's one lump sum at the end of the year IF you are still employed. Bonuses are paid 6 yo 8 weeks after the end of the bonus period IF you are still employed. This last round they delayed the bonus payout by an additional 6 weeks so they didn't have to pay bonuses to the people they were about to lay off. And those poor souls found out by surprise that the severance package had been reduced quietly in the background about 1 month before they were laid off. It went from 2 weeks notice and 2 weeks of pay per full year of service to no notice and a cap of 14 weeks of pay. People with 20 years of service were treated the same as people with 7. There is an abuse of the US Visa laws - cheap labor is brought on shore to replace US workers. Delivery quality is poor. Time to go.
