Berkley Technology Services Reviews

Management does not really care about their employees. There are no raises that meet inflation. Lots of empty promises. No real training structure. Serious lack of communication between teams and sometimes even between co-workers. HR department is not helpful at all for anything. Employees are very expendable and turnover is very high. Lots of people there are very arrogant and will treat you as if you are stupid. If you ask questions about certain applications and what they do, no one has an answer and management will not tell you. Lots of changes, we used to have a good amount of personal days and vacation days. They have taken a lot of that away. We used to be able to take 3 week vacations plus sick time and personal time. They have take away almost all of the personal days and now people are forced to use more vacation days. Bottom line...they want more from each employee. But they do not want to properly compensate anyone for it. Atmosphere is starting to feel like a small high school. If you are not in with the managers and all buddy-buddy with them, then it does not matter how hard you work. You will get nothing in return.

I had to leave as upper management has no clue to work loads or application tasks thus no rewards for hard work. Our project manager used Excel for everything and she could hardly write a cell formula. Lazy indian coders were of no help and sat talking to each other all day. I was promised training and a conference every two years. They provide a stinky in house training program nobody uses and all conference requests refused. If other coders aren't on your team they won't work with you. My old job called several times and so finally I left BTS and returned to an actually challenging job!! Also lost vacation when I left as BTS doesn't pay out accrued vacation time when you leave.
