      Good company but bad culture in the US - Anonymous employee NTT DATA Employee Review

      Pros

      Offered services / products are very good and used internally The french offices (headquarters) are the best to work compared to Schaumburg World wide opportunities Creativity encourage Thursday afterwork Flexibility on hours / work from home depending on the department

      Cons

      Culture in Schaumburg, IL doesn't reflect the start-up environment that you can feel in Paris. Other colleagues are very judgmental, no "friendly" environment. No casual clothes (No jean or sneakers except on friday for example). If you live in Chicago, forget it, too far away even with a car (awful traffic). No budget for old projects even if they are used by the majority of the clients, too much into the future project sometimes. Found them very picky about expenses out of work (no cars of hotels for more than a week if you're hired from the french office to the US for example).

      Pros

      I have worked with NTT DATA as a government IT and project management consultant since 2018, starting with Cognosante before the acquisition. My experience has been very positive. I have had the autonomy to focus on the success of my team and my client, while also having the support of a large, high-performing organization. There are real opportunities for growth, strong training resources, and leaders who genuinely care about employees, clients, and the communities they serve. I have also been promoted during my time here, which reflects the company’s commitment to recognizing and developing talent.

      Cons

      As with many large organizations, processes and systems and can sometimes take time to navigate, especially during periods of growth or transition. Continued focus on communication and simplifying internal processes would make the employee experience even stronger.
