Pros

Company respects work/life balance and is understanding when life happens.

Cons

CTO Dave Geurts often asks inappropriate questions about personal life, requires participation in embarrassing "team building activities" that include asking employees about their sex life, and asking employees to remove shirt and walk down the hall topless as a "prank". He frequently gossips about other employees behind their back and introduces drama into the workplace, including private HR matters, and holds employees disciplinary meetings in a public forum. He has even threatened to shoot previous employees. CEO Tim Ballantyne openly talks down to employees. He takes no responsibility for the company and frequently looks for scapegoats when asked why the company is underperforming. He ignores all PTO and reimbursement requests, and deceives employees for his own gain. His word means nothing. The entire company lacks leadership as management has no clear vision or goal. Stay way from this evil company and those who run it.

Suralink Response

We're very disappointed to see anyone had a negative experience at Suralink. At Suralink, we work hard to treat employees fairly and with respect—not to mention we fully comply with all employment laws (PTO and reimbursements included!). While we believe these claims are completely unfounded, we also believe that people perceive experiences differently and we respect their right to feel however they choose about those experiences. That being said, we will never tolerate discriminatory, violent, or inappropriate behavior. We will always strive to be a company where tolerance, inclusivity, and respect are the core principals upon which we work and live. If you are interested in working with us, we'd love to talk to you about our growth numbers and you can come to your own conclusions about our performance. We also recommend you check our Capterra reviews to see what our customers think of our vision and impact on the industries we serve.
