Pros

A good place to start your career in tech

Cons

Video cameras everywhere; Micro management; Gossip, seriously, be ready for some ladies out there to keep gossiping 8 hours per day; Some of the most toxic employees are very close to the management; Not flexible, it is a problem if you come 5-10 minutes later; The upper management sees and knows that some people are treated badly but couldn’t care less; The marketing team is responsible of faking the positive reviews.

USA Link System Response

Thank you for taking time to share the feedback with us, we value all feedback, whether positive or negative. Each opinion contributes for increasing our management system within the company. We are sorry to hear that your impression and experience in our company was not a more positive score. USA Link System strives to set the highest standard of quality in everything it does, constantly challenging employees to improve. It's not only “A good place to start your career in tech”, as we offer an environment of continuous development where we are committed to continually investing in the growth of our team members. Employees who have been with us for many years actively take responsibility for their own development, they truly desire to contribute to their professional growth and company growth. The constructive details you have shared are a great insight into how our practices are reflected in our employees daily routine with the impact on their comfortable work environment and this is very important to know! At USA Link System, we respect the company's policy that involves maintaining discipline in the team for more productive workflow, which is made clear during the onboarding period as each employee is familiarized with USA Link System's rules of professional conduct. Everyone knows that time is precious so every 5-minute delay from our employee is equal to significant funds loss of our clients and partners. Your punctuality is a reflection of respect for your team members who show up on time and also shows how much you value your work as well as demonstrating your commitment to getting things done. Let’s also point out that toilet breaks, eating an apple, having another cup of tea or coffee, going to the accounting office to ask for a necessary document and any other little thing that falls into the 8 working hours, we don't cram them into the 60 minutes lunch break and the 2 breaks of 15 minutes each. That is why we take all the situations with our employees' coming late seriously enough and we are sorry that our self-motivated and autonomous management style didn't work for you. Being an international tech company and working with well-known brands and companies, we are responsible for keeping all data safe and secure. Namely for this reason we use cameras for safety purposes within the office as any unexpected challenge could be immediately recorded, extracted, and addressed to the relevant department. At USA Link System, we daily struggle in order to create a healthy and open-minded environment, focused on transparency, healthy competition, and efficiency of our working processes. Every employee is always able to address their thoughts, ideas, opinion, and feelings to upper management without any fear of being misunderstood, humiliated, or ridiculed. The main secret of any success story is teamwork and ambitions which lie on the basis of every project apart. It's sad to hear that some of these important elements seemed to be toxic or careless in one way or another. We will take your experience as an important opportunity to improve our management policy and internal communication. Thank you for your feedback, and we hope that our answer will help you better understand the culture and expectations of the company

Pros

There's an office dog you can pet. This poor dog is 9 year old black lab and living in the cold office 24/7. He is starting to have health and mobility issues. The owners care little about him, the employees have to beg to take him to the vet. The only joy in his life is from 9-6pm when he has (limited) human interaction. Although, we would try and walk him as much as we could.

Cons

At the time I was hired, USA Link System was portrayed as a fun, carefree, modern tech-company; which, it is anything but. The boss is controlling, manipulative, disrespectful, and two-faced. The office was under constant verbal abuse from the owner. The employees are being monitored and micro-managed. Much of her and her company's work is stolen or plagiarized (purposely). The owner claims to have an open-door policy; however, voicing your concerns, or giving your opinion, leads to belittling your intelligence and contemplating your worth. This company has no benefits, it pays non-living wages, and if you accept a salary position, be ready to have no home life. The level of disrespect for her employees is unprecedented. Because of this, the company retention rate is truly poor. The company and the owner (in particular) are constantly trying to replace employees instead of improving their practices. Owner also does not promote from within the company. Raises? Good luck.
