Boston, MA

Former Employee – worked at Fujitsu

ProsThe company is fair and has some of the best talented person onboard. The leadership mentors you well for the project work. However promotion to the deserving person within the team depends on everything except your performance.

ConsWork Life balance. Work extended hours on weekdays and weekends.
The manager expect you to do functional as well as technical work. Just one resource for everything !!

Advice to Senior ManagementGive good training to the freshers before placing them in project.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Newark, NJ

Former Employee – worked at Fujitsu

ProsSteady paycheck
401 K Match
Overall the company is fair to work for. But you should keep in mind that you can get laid off at any time.

ConsNo training
No pay increase
Too much travel

Be warned that if you want to work for Fujitsu, its more of a bodyshop.

Advice to Senior ManagementI really don't know what to say. When you have bad decisions after bad decisions, then the only thing you can do is to start over.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

New York, NY

Current Employee – been working at Fujitsu

Pros- Global Company
- Currently going through transformational changes and therefore can be placed in "high risk / high reward" category - depending on how the transition will turn out great opportunities may arise.
- Many great people to work with

ConsIt has been all about cost cutting lately and the company is still going through major transformations.

Advice to Senior ManagementThe cost-containment strategy should not be sweeping but more intelligent. Some very valuable resources are leaving because of the overall morale and no clear vision - those will be most difficult to replace.

Richardson, TX

Current Employee – been working at Fujitsu

ProsOpportunity to be part of a developing company. Primary focus is in IT services. Can be part of a solution.

ConsNot the employer for an individual that doesn’t welcome lots of change on the road to improvement. Self directed individuals fit best in the company.

Advice to Senior ManagementCommunication is key. Better to overdo it than leave people in the dark or wondering. During periods of change most function better knowing the company’s plans, strategy, successes and challenges.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Sunnyvale, CA

Former Employee – worked at Fujitsu

ProsSmall company environment allowing for diverse assignments to be undertaken and implemented. Good working environment with competent people performing at a high level.

ConsParent companies needed to pursue a different, more cooperative vision for the overall company to be competitive in a mature worldwide market

Advice to Senior ManagementJoint venture subsequently bought out by one of the parent companies and subsidiary closed; so, prior management is no longer available to receive feedback

Former Employee – worked at Fujitsu

ProsGreat middle management and co-workers.

ConsConsolidation of divisions currently causing lack of focus. Fujitsu America division shifting to more of a consulting lead organization with hardware drag. If you are focused on Enterprise product sales... consider another employer. If you are more focused on consulting services and can survive the current turmoil... probably a good place for you to land.

Advice to Senior ManagementThe shift to a consulting lead sales model will be viewed as a necessary adjustment. However, the consulting focus has significantly impacted any chance of being considered a significant hardware vendor in North America. Fujitsu Limited's requirements to dramatically increase their product sales will not occur with the confusion and uncertainty within the sales forces.
