Pros

Most of the people there seemed nice, including management. Work From Home

Cons

Extremely understaffed - Most days phone calls are non-stop, and all the while they expect you to work on email tickets at the same time. Most of the callers are unnecessarily hostile or simply don't know how to do their jobs. - You will have to pull teeth to get callers to co-operate. There will be many difficult calls that last hours, and you will take a lot of abuse. Communication hit-or-miss - Many, many times when I required a response on something, and I would be left waiting far too long with an angry person on the phone. There were people NOTORIOUS for not giving straight answers to direct questions, and yet management did nothing about it! Support is time generally left in the dark on things Knowledge Base is inadequate and impossible to search. The training is doesn't prepare you well for the job. As you work there longer, they make you support more platforms with even less training. Starting wage seemed good at first, but was way to low in hindsight for the amount of workload they expect you to take on. Software/Hardware implementation is very proprietary - You won't learn very much in this job that will carry over to other IT jobs

Tech support review

Pros

365 retail markets started out as a really great place to work, they do have good PTO and the company culture outside of the support department is great.

Cons

The company used to be a hidden gem but due to gross mismanagement the technical support department is truly awful to be a part of. Promotions are dished out solely based on nepotism. Awful behavior is not only tolerated but rewarded. vain promises are given time and time again. They are perpetually understaffed so you will be over worked for 90% of the year. The knowledge base you need to have is insane and the ongoing training is non existent There is no communication with the tech support team, new products will be launched and no one in the support team will hear about it until you get a call from a customer when you have no training and one document to go off of. They actively try to keep you in the department if you try to leave to another part of the company (unless you are a favored employee)

Pros

Friendly employees that's about it

Cons

This place is a real hole. They laid off their highest paid, most loyal employees during Covid and then removed all benefits, promotions, and enjoyment from work. People that worked here for years. People who had just had children. All let go because they "couldn't afford them". But then gave out very large bonuses to the employees at the end of the year. So where did all that money suddenly come from? Loyalty means nothing. I'm scared every day for my job because people who were much better than me and worked here for years got dropped without even a second thought. Disgusting, greedy company. Can't wait to get away.

As the CEO, it is never easy making tough decisions and it is always my intention to make the best decisions for our the 230+ team members at 365, our customers and our community. Sometimes I miss the mark and it seems in your case that is true. What is the most disappointing to me is that you do not trust me enough to come to me directly with concerns and I hope that by being transparent in this public forum I will gain that trust. Due to the impact of Covid-19, it is true that in 2020: • Employees were laid off for the first time in company history • We paused the 401k match • We temporarily increased the costs of benefits to employees • We did not give raises in 2020 • Some staff offered to defer a percentage of their salary I am happy to report the following actions since: • Employees were laid off o We began hiring for new roles that fit our strategic goals and growth • We stopped 401k match o 401k match was reinstated 1/1/21 • We increased the costs of benefits to employees o We have decreased the costs of benefits to employees as of 12/1/20 • We did not give raises in 2020 o Raises will take place in 2021 • Some staff offered to defer a percentage of their salary o All staff have received all of their deferred salary as of 1/1/21 In addition to the actions above, we have: • Paid full bonuses out in 2020, the tenth year in a row • Significant investment in our HQ building, opening in Spring 2021 made possible with new investment partners. • A plan to hire 30+ people in 2021 that fit our strategic goals • Investment in Stockwell.ai • New investment from major Private Equity group • Paid additional, significant bonuses to all staff members in December 2020 I will also cover this information in our monthly all-hands meeting in case you do not see this response. I do hope that everyone at 365 knows that feedback is welcome and expected, I look forward to hearing your feedback directly. – Joe Hessling, 365 CEO
