I wish Rusty Didn't sell his company to New Era
Pros
Live Techologies install was a once in a lifetime opportunity. This was the greatest company anyone has ever worked for in AV. Nothing will ever compare to what we had from about 2014-2019. Everyone who has ever worked for someone else likely agrees. Especially anyone who was there when we were sold to the worst-ran company in history known as New Era.
Cons
Rusty broke off and renamed Live Technologies install division into SI-Technologies. Then sold it off to New Era technology. What a complete disaster. We went from the best company anyone has ever worked for to I don't even know what to call new era. Go look at their reviews. They're the laughing stock of the AV industry. It changed the lives of every individual on the Live Techologies install side - for the worse. We lost our good benefits, our total compensation package was reduced, 401K match was peanuts compared, lost our free gym membership through insurance, lost our health incentive checks, lost our bonus structure, lost our yearly raises (merit based), lost our culture, lost clients, lost almost everything. They changed from the BEST system anyone has ever used to the 100% absolute WORST system ever known as Connectwise. I hope Rusty knows - if he cares- that the company that he built or helped build turned into dust...
