Current Employee – been working at Amdocs full-time

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Current Employee – been working at Amdocs full-time for more than 8 years

Pros – Was once a decent company to work for that gave something to its customers and nested in its employees growth and well being. If you're lucky you'll have some decent colleagues to share your frustrations at the top heavy, thick headed management structures , stifling bureaucracy and completely insane lack of budget to really enable you do you work well.

Cons – Employees are like furniture or equipment. Use them without consideration for their humanity and then throws them away when they break. Talks big about values and employee care but doesn't stand behind that. Run by a bunch of cronies who look out for each other and screw the rest of you,,,

Advice to Senior Management – Put money towards things that matter, ie people... you have to spend some money to earn some more. Cutting and cutting to keep showing a profit every quarter will eventually leave you with nothing and no way to earn anything anymore,,, stop rushing towards the cliff of unsustainable constant budget cuts and invest in growth.

Current Employee – been working at Amdocs full-time for more than 8 years

Pros – More or less easy to get admitted, located both in north and in south Israel - convenient for people who do not wont to live n the center, big company with many options inside, once you are in, many business trips for those who like it, since the company has sites all over the world.

Cons – Low salary, many projects are very demanding - force you to work without any direct compensation. Not very secure - each summer people are getting fired.

Current Employee – been working at Amdocs full-time

Pros – They pay money. I like money. Since I've been there a long time it's fairly comfortable.. they do all the usual benefits, and some managers make an effort to try and keep people happy.

Cons – There seems to be a biannual rotation of senior managers who don't seem bothered with what the division does. Actually getting new development approved is near impossible unless a customer has already signed up money for it, so you are always behind the curve. Cost cutting on things like hardware is just insane. There is a management emphasis on working weekends even when there is no work to do, it just seems like a reflex. There is zero sense of direction or development, there is no desire to be the best or take on competitors from the management, presumably because these things are not in their control.

Promotions are slightly less frequent than blue moons.

Advice to Senior Management – Stop acting like cowards and show some actual vision.,

Former Employee – worked at Amdocs full-time for more than 3 years

Pros – It keeps you happy
You will find maximum percentage of ppl who have stayed for more than 3 or may be 5 years
You can get shortterm onsites (if you are not in really bad project/line), this is good for freshers but if you are looking for long term onsite after exp of around 3 years the chance will be very less compared to other service based companies. So it is a bargain deal and you have to decide what you want

Cons – There are lot of ppl with 5 years exp and working as developers so going up the ladder can be difficult
Long term onsite is rare
AMdocs is best in telecom domain but once you have telecom domain expertise wwhere will you go.. you cant go to Tech Mahindra as they wont be able to give you hike.. So option are less in telecom damain and in all probability you will have to change the domain while switching

Advice to Senior Management – If you compare the salaries with service based companies then you should give the long term onsite also

Current Employee – been working at Amdocs full-time for more than a year

Pros – Better Salary
Good Food
Good Transport facilities
Better onsite opportunites

Cons – Even if you are a computer engineer graduate, Amdocs might give you a testing or support job if you are a fresher.

For SI Testing, night shifts are a routine

Some freshers might be given core development work in Cyprus and some are put into testing or support in night shifts.

I was offered testing and was not told beforehand that I would be offered testing. I thought as I am a computer engineer from a very good institute, I will be offered development job. Some of my friends were randomly given dev job.

Advice to Senior Management – Please be specific and tell the freshers upfront the kind of job they are being offered. I was offered testing and was not told beforehand that I would be offered testing. I thought as I am a computer engineer from a very good institute, I will be offered development job. Some of my friends were randomly given dev job.
