Pros

Good clients base but still its better to join as direct employees of these clients rather than be contract employee for them under UST. NO other advantage Doesnot even have a good health coverage policy but you will definately fall sick here drawing long hours.

Cons

Very shrewed and inhumane managerial tactics applied to contract employees. The UST manager and his counter part in client org has an understanding. Let me explain jow this works. Your client will give u too much tasks but will not clear dependency/blockers and you will be ignored in stand scrum meetings till 3 days before your delivery date. Few days later just before the deliver date all blockers will be cleared and your client will ask you to deliver as per initial delivery date so now you work on weekend, pull late nights thats upto you. So now when you submit your work a bit delayed lets say by a day or two your UST managerbwill call you and say your effort is 50% for the month as reported by your client and they are not paying the full bill. No matter how much you have mentioned about the blocker or anything to your UST manager he will not listen to anything. This will happen in loop for a month or two then onwards your UST manager wil start applying LOP as per his/her wish and give you 50% salary saying your bill from your clients end has been consistently lower than 50%. Their namesake health coverage covers your spouce and three children but not your mom dad. LOL

Pros

The company is already shifting from services to products and platforms business, with the CEO driving the change directly. This transition is visible and is steep. The upside to this transformation is the company already creating meaningful opportunities for people to grow new skills and take on more strategic and value-added work. The key is to lean in and make full use of the resources available, including client universities, hack-a-thons, ideathons, and skill transformation programs, to stay ahead. For internal talent, the opportunities in product, platform development, and consulting are abundant, across both existing offerings and new solutions.

Cons

the organization is going through a painful transition unlike anything it has experienced in its 26-year history; while this change is necessary to win in the market, stronger support through the transition is an area where the company can improve and focus.
