ABOUT THIS COMPANY:

Service experts


Having started life as a manufacturer of computers, Unisys' business model has evolved over the years to the point where its technology solutions (i.e., the stuff it builds) now take a back seat to its service offerings.  Indeed, the majority of the firm's revenue now comes from the four sectors that comprise its services unit: consulting and systems integration, outsourcing, infrastructure services and core maintenance work.  Together, those sectors contribute more than 85 percent of Unisys' annual revenue, while the technology solutions unit contributes the remainder.

Unisys SURVEY SAYS


A range of reviews


Insider perceptions of the culture at Unisys range from glowing to lukewarm.  A senior systems analyst boasts that the firm's atmosphere is “the best I have seen in the last 30 years,” and others claim it is “excellent” and marked by “high performance and accountability.”  Less enthusiastic praise for the environment comes in the form of basic adjectives such as “open,” “direct,” “friendly” and “very nice.”  “We are a customer-centered organization focusing on how we can better help our clients,” says one respondent, and a colleague adds that the firm is "supportive of learning and allowing its employees to grow in their careers.”  Meanwhile, a less satisfied staffer warns that there’s a lot of bureaucracy that gets in the way, and a colleague complains that the firm is “clinical in assessing performance,” and is “outcome-focused rather than being purpose-driven.”

Tips from the inside

A hiring hodgepodge


The hiring process at Unisys varies widely, so it will be difficult to predict what you might encounter as a candidate.  Insiders report that there could be anywhere from one interview to three, or even five rounds of interviews.  A principal notes that interviews may be with human resources (consisting of “psychological questions”), with a resource manager (who would ask questions to establish whether “you fit with projects available”) and/or with a prospective project manager.
