Hiring freeze AFAIK.

NTT Data CnLo2 OP Jun 9, 2023

Even with jobs they posted, is there an exception for those positions?

Red Hat stars ⭐️ Jun 9, 2023

Those might be GC positions. Or may be some exceptions.. we have company level hiring freeze..

It is a good company with WLB but poor growth and pay is less relative to peers.

Red Hat ghdh Jun 9, 2023

Talking about wlb and culture, it's the best in industry. No kidding.

Its hiring freeze for new positions, but they are still hiring for backfill positions (aka if someone recently left). Has to be same position in the same region as someone who left.

Not really, backfills get 50% of the original position pay, so you really get a half of a backfill

Wlb depends on the team but overall yeah it's pretty good. Everyone always respects your time off and will almost never ask you to work through your PTO or even the weekend. Perks, benefits - not bad. We have a recharge day every quarter (free PTO), bonus is mehhhh especially after layoffs, they can pay up to 5k for education per year, regular health insurance, parental leave is good, and 401k matching is also mehh. I'm happy with my pay but I do hear a lot that it's average for a position. Love working there because the work is exciting, co-workers are equally chill and passionate at the same time, and they really appreciate you if you put in a lot of effort with extra rewards (that can be turned into cash) and recognitions.

Just curious what is our parental leave??

Check out Glassdoor, too. Lots of info there on the impact of the acquisition on culture.

You get a shit ton of pto

NTT Data CnLo2 OP Jun 11, 2023

How many days?

Red Hat pcTr87 Jun 12, 2023

4 weeks of normal pto. One recharge day per quarter, a floating holiday, and you get the time between Christmas and new years off for free
