Pros

Founders seemed like nice people. Nice people in the sales department. OG's of the IT department were nice.

Cons

Pay attention to the comments left on 6/10/25 and 5/30/25. These are 100% true and the Marketing department is terrible; this goes back to the TCG Acquistion and CMO being petty and not practicing what she preaches on DEI. The Sales Force alumni they brought on in their IT department are a huge red flag that their IT department is going to the way of questionable and controversial hiring biases that are not at all based on skill, performance or merit. I left due to the incompetence in my own department and favoritism for non-performers who were costing the company a lot of money with the mistakes they were making, including the manager I reported to. Founders, COO, and Columbia Capital need to take note of this.

Pros

Great opportunity for someone right out of college or looking to break into the channel industry. While the compensation is on the lower side, the exposure and vendor connections you’ll build can open doors to higher-paying roles especially with vendors down the line. The owners are very nice and caring people.

Cons

The TSD space remains heavily rooted in telecom, which shows up clearly in both the partner base and the broader culture. There are persistent concerns around favoritism in recent promotions, and the feedback regarding nepotism is well-founded. There are also gaps within parts of the senior and middle leadership teams, particularly around the level of experience and professionalism typically expected at that stage. This can lead to inconsistent decision-making and, at times, reduced confidence across teams. In addition, there’s a noticeable pattern among many employees with 5+ years of tenure who appear overly comfortable in roles that lack challenge, rather than pushing for growth or pursuing larger opportunities. Meanwhile, top performers tend to move on earlier, often drawn by stronger compensation and more compelling opportunities elsewhere..
