Everis is the typical meat grinder, and it is known for that in Spain.
Now, just as I'm writing this I'm sure someome from Everis will chime in to say he gets paid handsomely and works for amazing projects.
But everyone I've known working for Everis wants to die.
And if such project had to land in Spain for political reasons, there are plenty of companies capable on taking such project with way better prospects.
- zeusk 5y agoSo it's akin to Capgemini, Infosys, Accenture, Deloitte, PwC, TCS and the like?
- gary_0 5y agoDon't forget Oracle.
- DaiPlusPlus 5y agoOracle still has a product though.
- Foobar8568 5y agoI wouldn't put Deloitte or PwC with the other ones. But yeah, you can add Atos techmindra etc for body shops. Accenture pretends to be like a big4 (like most consultancy) but they are much closer to an Atos/Infosys than PwC.
- zeusk 5y ago> wouldn't put Deloitte or PwC with the other ones. I'm not convinced. I attended one of their recruitment events at university - lots of synergy going around. In fact I forgot about EY and a bunch of others too.
- iagovar 5y agoYep. They take on some "advanced" projects too, but at the end of the day it's a meat grinder.
- joe_the_user 5y agoArticle: The platform, known as NATO’s Service-Oriented Architecture and Identity Access Management (SOA & IdM) Project, is one of four core projects of NATO's IT modernization efforts. So this expresses what "modernization" is - fob as much work as possible unto a job-shop/meat-grinder operation and watch things like this happen. I don't even know whether to laugh or be appalled, the Snowden leaks happened due to contracted-out sys admins, after all.
- flatline 5y agoNearly everyone who does real work like this for the government is a contractor anymore. The government employees manage the contracts.
- DaiPlusPlus 5y ago> The government employees manage the contracts. How long before that's outsourced to Accenture too?
- nerbert 5y agoNo no, the companies executing the contracts are the experts, they know what’s best to put in them. It comes as free consult. Edit: if only this was a joke.
- jvanderbot 5y ago"Industry can handle it better"
- dragonelite 5y agopaying double if not triple if they would be internal worker.
- joe_the_user 5y agoSure, the states of the world have decided that security isn't one of their core competencies - computer security, yes, but the point remains. I find this mind-boggling but that's how it is.
- vishnugupta 5y agoI had a good LOL seeing this[1]. Those Land/Air/Maritime icons look very legit. [1] https://imgur.com/Hcwayqq https://imgur.com/Hcwayqq
- breakingcups 5y agoI have that icon pack, it's from the early 2000's, if not earlier.
- calgoo 5y agoPay is shit, there are a few interesting projects but that’s it. Good for people starting out young, but like all of these companies, full of lies and promotions that don’t mean anything except a title.
- calgoo 5y agoForgot to mention: they don’t have an HR department anymore as they are too cool for that. They do have something they call “people” that manage contract, hiring etc. but according to them it’s not HR.
- anthk 5y agoAdd Indra to the list.
- iagovar 5y agoIMO this is the kind of project for GMV.
- lanbanger 5y agoI worked as an outside consultant with a team at Everis. It was indeed a meat-grinder of a firm. The final week I was there we did a minimum of 15 hours a day, and I think the longest was 19 or something insane.
