Pros

Good entry-level experience in a corporate role at a cubicle farm.

Cons

Below-average salary, 401K vesting period is five years. Pre-COVID the remote work policy was basically non-existent. The constant grand announcements of RTO signaled disorganization and a disconnect. For example, back in November 2020, we were supposed to work at headquarters once a week, but that was shut down after a mere two days. The company has since adopted an inflexible hybrid model that seems to be trending toward more days in office than WFH. Suggestions for improvement to interdepartmental processes were never implemented. Regarding low-performing employees, the only disciplinary action taken was against those in the top rank by making them pick up the slack. It was a struggle to process an ever increasing volume of work on ancient laptops programmed with malfunctioning internal systems. A hardware/software reseller boasts billions in revenue and invests more resources in rebranding than its technology or employees.

Pros

Great place to work for especially for those in information technology looking to learn more from software and hardware vendors. The meet and greets + lunch and learns help you learn more about the products and services they provide.

Cons

None, I’ve had a positive experience with them!

Pros

Work from home, paid for career development trainings/certifications, and depending on your role, flexible hours

Cons

-Management/Senior Leadership teams are very disorganized and often change processes several times throughout the year, without consulting the teams that would be impacted -Tools are extremely outdated -What mattered to senior leadership was the velocity of closing projects, vs quality of delivery -Extremely valid criticism was often ignored -Very difficult to get promoted -SHI loves automating everything they can, so a lot of times, work ends up feeling very tedious and repetitive -Day to day work very often includes tedious process approvals from management, slowing down pace of work with no real feedback given during the approval process -Met a lot of people who were great, but met far more who are toxic -Everything feels escalated even if the “issue” is manageable -EXTREMELY micromanaged
