I worked for 2 years at Dimension Data as Associate Client Manager. I really enjoyed the dynamic environnement and the management very close the team member.
The people are nice.
As a trainer/facilitator, i need to ensure that my objectives for the day is set out.
i need to ensure that i cover the day's content and that my learners have a clear understanding of what was trained.
Pros
working hours
Cons
leadership
The division I was in was mostly.night shift. Wouldn't be ideal.for a family man/woman. They needed you to.work weekends as per international client demand was high.
Pros
Great food at the cafeteria
Cons
When you sleepy by 4am and still have 2hours left of your shift
Holiday as client wants. No work limit, no didicated time intervals, when you go to the field on work no lunch no time period and no any transportation support by the company. No increment on the behalf of performance.
Pros
Nothing
Cons
Depends on work load
The work culture and the people make this one of the greatest places to work, the experience gained is invaluable and there are many avenues to pursue.
The one area that needs work is the retention of good staff and helping to guide staff "new" to corporate, on their career options and allowing them to have a more holistic view.
Pros
Great staff benefits
Cons
High pressure
Great working environment because of the other employees there. People welcomed us even though we were from different departments and do not even know each other but they are all friendly.
Learned various skills. Most of the work is outsourced. Generally take very less people on its payroll. Work culture is good. In terms of travelling allowances and other perks they pay well.
Pros
Travelling allowances.
Cons
Clients were very demanding.
Abundant in learnings although at times there are too much information. Cross functional teams are engaged. Professionalism is excellent. Everyone is driven in achieving targets.
Being an IT consulting firm, you meet a lot of professional while at work.
The privileged of working around different sectors like Bank, telecom etc developed my confident in meeting people.
One of the best indian based IT company for long period of work
work culture and timing is healthy.
work place and campus greenish.
need to improve management
Pros
good management
Cons
nothing
Management don't recognize nor accept blame for anything, nor listen to advice from staff.
Management don't communicate with staff and news of what is happening is typically heard through the press media or grapevine before management send out any communication to staff.
Management cut backs (1/3+ of staff gone in past 6 months and not replaced) has left Di Data in a state where it is not possible to provide a quality service to customers.
Pros
Some very clever people who work very hard to keep the customers with DiData, Very friendly workforce (mostly) at shop floor level, Online training is available at no cost
Cons
If you like working 12+ hours each day then this is the place for you, Don't expect management to recognize your efforts, The workload is obscene and unachievable, you will be blamed by management when you don't achieve the impossible, Lack of staff to get the job done
