      Pros

      You work with a wide range of technologies in a wide range of environments. This gives you tons of exposure over other employers. Most of the people you work with want to help you learn and act as a team. The days are never mundane, each day could be wildly different. Historically, we have done lots of charity events, outings, and team building events. We also run a ping pong tournament. Snacks and beverages are provided.

      Cons

      Not much room for growth. Pay is below industry standards for the region. The management want's you to study and take certifications, which will benefit the company, but in the same breath, they are "not interested in paper warriors". Rather than paying for training, they want you to learn from your coworkers. Don't expect much in the way of compensation for earning the certifications as well, you need to "prove yourself", then the reward will come. Waiting for the reward to come is a risky proposition as well, as raises were not given this year. Benefits/bonus plans could use some work. There's been a lot of mismanagement and poor decision making from the upper management in the last year, and it's shown in the company's performance. Lots of time spent with "business coaching" and forcing their management strategies on us. A surprising amount of middle management for a company of this size. Swick Technologies stresses culture, but there's a lot of condescension and arrogance from some members of management. It can be a high stress work environment where off hours work is expected of you.
