SunGard Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"I've worked at Sungard through INSOURCE for 3 years now. It has been the best technical experience I have ever had. Great company, but I have been on contract to work for them and they are on a hiring freeze and hours for me have been slow."

"Not enough room for upward mobility, no-frills work environment, no career mentoring from what I could see, decent health plan, liberal telecommuting policy, at least in my division, significant offshore development presence, bonuses low if existent at all.If you are a process person, this is the place for you. If you are an innovator, you will find scant company here. Corporate leadership has taken great strides to improve the company's relationship with its employees."

"I worked with SunGard for three months and I had a great experience."

"SunGard is bent on maintaining an India based support presence despite the problems it has, and is causing. High turnover coupled with the inability to think outside the box leaves the US team to pull the weight. Current numbers show that the US team handles more issues with less members, yet management is either blind or refuses to admit this fact. Despite all of this I will admit that compensation is outstanding, but no matter how good compensation is it does not outweigh the current issues."

"Excellent job until they decided to destroy the software product in which they'd invested millions of dollars and then let go the sales team."
