Unisys reviews

When Eric left and the CEO, Peter Altabef, became more involved in operations, the culture and stock took a turn for the worse. In a little over a year, the stock went down 84%! Previous layoffs impacted service delivery in a very negative way and the people that stayed paid the price with increased stress, escalations, and time worked. While they had a decrease in having a work/life balance and job satisfaction. There are no longer annual merit increases and the base pay is already below market value. Peter is forcing a return to office policy even if someone was previously hired as remote. Keep in mind, the majority of the workforce has been fully remote when the pandemic started, and we helped tons of other companies go remote successfully. There is no real explanation as to the 'why' of this sudden change in policy. In my opinion, it is to force individuals to quit, so layoffs don't happen and the people leaving can be under the radar and out of the news. If managers don't enforce this, he wants them to leave, too. In India, for example, employees have to work in the office for 10 hours (including lunch) with the majority working the night-shift. It doesn't matter if they have a commute of 2 hours both ways. With 8 hours of sleep, that leaves a whole 2 hours of "free time" (including 2 other meals). So where is the "work/life balance"? It would not surprise me if Unisys is bought out by another company within a year.

Horrible, and I mean horrible place to work. Unless you are a brown nosing, uneducated individual who enjoys 0, yes, zero merit increases every year, this place is not for you. Most middle management has evolved from fixing machines in the 70's-80's and reached their Peter Principle 20 years ago. Individual initiatives are squelched and/or stolen from you and by all means don't try to implement any kind of positive changes. These are perceived as "boat rocking" and usually not understood by the people who are still telling stores about Univac 1. I was a Sr. Director at this ill managed albatross for over 25 years. They have lost most of their major clients like Dell and spend more time trying to find ways to reduce cost versus generating revenue. YOU CANNOT CUT YOUR WAY TO LONG TERM PROFITABILITY! Unisys is a company that is in a continual 15 year downward spiral and has no chance of ever recovering. If you are a young, educated individual who is trying to make a difference and start a career, DO NOT come to Unisys. You will end up leaving within 1-2 years. First you are young and second you are educated both are traits, looked down upon by middle management. Unless you are a good ole boy or crawled around inside machines in your past....Run Away as Fast as You Can! there is a better life out there and that goes for all of you still there who think there is nothing better. Trust me there is. Get out before they push you out to prop up next quarters margin.
