A great place to leave

Pros

Pizza, dogs, health insurance, full time hours

Cons

It's just a bad environment. The VP went on vacation and people got testy and started slamming doors. I tried to push for better pay or at least a small education budget and I was told that I should look at working at System76 as a passion project and that certifications are overrated.

Pros

Small privately owned business with good culture.

Cons

Small size means that company fortunes fluctuate - a bad market makes layoffs are more likely than at larger places

Pros

the occasional pizza party and the t-shirt with their logo on it

Cons

If you aim to expand your technical knowledge and gain experience in the tech industry, this isn’t the place for you. Resources to perform your job are limited, and the pay is low. Support is expected to manage a wide range of tasks, from assisting the build team while addressing customer complaints and inquiries, to managing a ticket queue of more than 100 tickets. Despite this demanding role, your salary will remain the same, and the responsibilities associated with your job are poorly defined. You will often be used as a scapegoat by the sales team, who push unresolved issues onto you, leaving you to deal with the fallout of complaints—all for less pay than they receive. The turnover rate in the department is high, leading to an influx of new coworkers every few months, who will start at the same pay as you but typically do only half of your workload. The roles within the company are not clearly defined. There are people with non-productive roles within the company whose job is to record poorly made social media content who every once in a while come over and give you lessons on how to effectively do your job and be productive.
