Pros

Most Techs are junior that are very easy to get along with, and have desire to learn and be mentored. Other than that none that I can think of..... No profit sharing, No 401K, terrible health benefits.

Cons

Toxic, Conflict-ridden environment, very low morale, the worst I have ever seen, conflict resolution strategy is to get rid of all those that speak out against the actions of the owner. As mentioned above No profit sharing, No 401K, terrible health benefits. Environment has a culture of bullying causing a revolving door of capable technicians. For a Managed Service Provider, the Tech’s are not given the basic tools to do their job effectively and most are providing personal devices to get the job done. I expected difficult times, it’s the nature of the industry, but I never thought they’d be so bad, so long and so frequent. Tech’s are guided into practices that hinder performance and basic industry standards are ignore all for profit. Many of the employee’s often experience feelings of frustration, anger and the lack of fulfillment. Having to deal with irate clients because of unrealistic promises made by the owner. High turnover rates, management treats employees as easily replaceable.

Pros

While I was there, my fellow Engineers we knowledgeable and easy to work with. The clients where nice for the most part.

Cons

Owner paints a picture of company that is a fairy tail, longest employed employee's are in the administrative area. In 4 months 5 Engineers left and before that 2 others had left, this should give the owner cause for some self reflection, instead he is doubling down. I feel that he just uses Engineers until they want take the poor work environment and lack of essential equipment to do their job anymore and just makes up stuff to get rid of you or you leave on your own, it's the revolving door. Owner puts profits first, I feel that it is a disservice to the clients and I feel for them. No benefits, poor pay, look out if you have milage reimbursements, you will be lucky if you get this within 30-60 days. Management seems to have dishonest business practices. If this is the environment you want to work in, then this is the place for you.
