Pros

1. Some coworkers were great. 2. Conduent will teach you brutal lessons about the negative aspects of corporations. 3. Managing your meager benefits is easy through the benefits web portal.

Cons

1. "Accushoring" simply means outsourcing all possible work to underqualified, underpaid people in cheap labor markets. Quit trying to make it something it isn't. It is simply offshoring with a BS argument you made up justifying it. 2. The stated intention is to ramp up the pace of outsourcing. Anyone in US/EMEA management should be looking for work. Now that the divestiture is complete the CEO wants to send another 10% of the jobs left in US/EMEA offshore within a year. 3. They are a giant disorganized corporation with terrible leadership on a downward spiral. Their profits have been propped up by sales and reorganization since they split from Xerox. They just need time to completely fall apart. 4. The pay is terrible, and the raises.......well there are none. They cap raises at 10% even for changes of position. They hire you cheap and you stay cheap. 6. No more remote work - but that is probably temporary. They eliminated remote work earlier this year as a way to have a "Free" lay off. When they forced all remote employees back into offices - many quit. Conduent then hired cheap offshore replacements. The BS about how important it is to be together in offices is only valid for certain professions - like software development. 7. They will feed you garbage all day long and expect you to smile and ask for seconds. Bad news all day, lay offs, constant reorganization, terrible leadership. Then you get an email asking you to promote Conduent on your personal social media - you get an email like that every week. Drink the Conduent Koolaid....and all will be well. PS - You can go back to Infosys now. Your work is done here - destruction complete!

Delusional corporate management ending work from home positions

Pros

Steady pay. Scheduled hours. Stable job

Cons

Heavily micro-managed. Top heavy with management. Little thought given to employees. Company was previously under Xerox but then split into a separate company. Went 9 years without a raise then given very minor raise. Company downsized their office space & allowed us all to work from home which was great & I along with everyone else have been able to save money that way. Not having to buy clothes constantly & also saving on day care or after school care expenses for those with kids. Also saving on transportation costs. So the no raise or minor raise situation was easier to handle. Now corporate management has decided we all need to come back to the office under the strange idea that we're needed there to "collaborate" to save the company. News flash upper management - the only thing that goes on in most offices in the hallways & cafeteria is gossip, backstabbing & rumors. Something I've been very happy to be away from while working at home. For sales & marketing staff or corporate management yes it makes sense to have all of you in the same building to strategize. For the rest of us in administrative, customer service/call center or clerical work it makes no sense at all. Some of us no longer live in the same state or anywhere near where the office is located so basically you've just given us notice that we have to find a new job. I am one of those people. With working at home I was able to move to a new area to be closer to my son. Now being told that we have to come back to the office I am now in a position where I have to start looking for new employment. You're going to find a lot of your experienced employees are going to be leaving for something closer to home. Very sad & not very good for the company.

No more working remotely from home

Pros

Huge company, so opportunity exists to transition within departments or internationally 401k Plan is easy to borrow quick loans from and has been performing well of late

Cons

Working from home was a plus, but a new policy put in place April 2018 is eliminating most remote positions. I don’t get it. Very small raises, but I guess that’s the new norm. Minimal job security. RIF’s (reductions-in-force) around every corner Pure cost-cutting mode right now. Mostly real estate & staffing costs being cut. Departments are encouraged to work together but provide no efforts or incentives to do so Lots of current positions are being offshored which is what it is I guess Severance policy was reduced from 10 weeks to 4 weeks over the course of 2017
