Fujitsu Reviews

Pros

The people centric tag line has really shown up over the last 12 months

Cons

Can be slow and overly complex

Pros

Laidback. Slow paced. Lots of red tape and paperwork. Little need to know what you're doing. Lots of hype.

Cons

Hypocritical stance on minority groups. Low retention of minorities, because if they complain about the discrimination - the company gets rid of them. If you mention the poor diversity it's a "not our problem" approach. You can evidence harassment, bullying, discrimination or poor practice/standards and the company will straight up deny it then come after your job - then replace you with someone more expensive. Overly-protective of the old-hats in the company, regardless of their competence or wrongdoing. Patronising/Infantilizing culture. Terrible graduate scheme. Too much hype.

Pros

Lots and lots of processes

Cons

Lots and lots of rigid processes

Pros

Night shifts were dead so you could study for a better job

Cons

You work with out dated hardware, software and processes. It's a timewarp into the early 90s. It's just a big balleeks really. Everyone around you are thick. All your colleagues are alcoholics because they drink to numb the pain of throwing their lives away at Fujitsu. If you go into fujitsu with skills, you will come out deskilled. It's like you walk into a cave form the light... your eyes become desenstised to the darkness and your eyes adjust and all you see around you is faeces, then when you leave, you are practically blinded by the sun, squinting and fumbling around trying to find your feet again. Fujitsu is the pits, never go there - and if you are employed there - get out NOW!

Pros

Reasonably flexible, can work from home Salary ok ( but promotions hard to come by)

Cons

Redundancy programs have the wrong effect - very good people just get fed up and find external roles. The number of redundancies is reduced but so is effectiveness. Process heavy Too much emphasis on pointless internal stats that yield no benefit Constant dirge around the need for more cloud focus whilst not having a retraining program dedicated to it, Performance management ineffective - company can't be bothered to set goals so expect yo to set your own against a high level strategy

Pros

- Relaxed working environment, there is no work so you are free to read books and get payed for it.

Cons

- There are no data science opportunities at Fujitsu whatsoever. - Siloed teams with virtually no internal communication. - Management have risen to their level of incompetence. No one managing any team had any idea what they were talking about. - No budget for any cloud computing resources, or anyone in the company to talk to regarding this. All data science work had to be done on an under-resourced laptop. - No wfh support during covid. - Upper management begging for answers with how to remain competitive in the market; Fujitsu has been left behind by all competition.
