Amdocs reviews

1) Layoff: Lots of silent Layoffs have happened in past few months. Isarel employees are badly affected due to this. 2) Tech Stack : Amdocs have old tech stack in most of projects/products. 3) Low pay: Pay scale in Amdocs is quite low compared to its competitors. 4)Documentation : most of the old products have no documentation or very little documentation. The old people have created dependency and they don't like to create/maintain documents 5) Low quality work : Most people here have fancy designations but they do low quality work. 6) Hike: In year 2023, only half of the employees got hike. In year 2024, they told hike will be delayed by 6 months. This created a situation where most of the most were forced to quit from Amdocs 7) Marketing : Company is wasting money on marketing. Company should spend/invest on its employees 8) Middle Managers: There are lots OF non technical middle managers in company at this point. These people ask junior team members for status of the task and share that to higher management people. THAT'S ALL. These people don't know technical stuffs so they can't help junior team members

The specific team I worked on was one of the most dysfunctional teams I've ever seen. Excessive reliance on tribal knowledge, very little useful documentation of anything (and a feeling that at least some of this was by design), poorly written test cases bordering on useless, optimizing for optics over getting the job done, and so much noise in email and teams channels that it was nearly impossible to find any useful information and frequent work on weekends to make up for downtime during normal working hours. It's hard to say how much of this was the client and how much was on the Amdocs side, but it is clear that whatever development process they were using was not working.
