Pros

The two offices were nice. I wish I had more pros to list. There were a few people that were nice meeting.

Cons

Upp Technology is spiralling downward at a rapid rate. Their business strategy is outdated. I agree with one of the other reviews, for a technology company they don't utilize technology. Their number one sales technique is still cold calling for heaven's sake! Time to work smart and not hard! As for the management, they do not respect their employees or their clients. Their presidents also sexually prey on the recent addition of young, female employees. Many of these young women refused to speak up due to the lack of confidentiality and acceptance of any sort of complaint against the CEOs executives. It's unfortunate that the owners can't see that their "presidents" are one of the main reasons the company is losing business and great employees. The company is top heavy with no middle management. A chain of command would be of great help to the CEO since his presidents cannot be trusted. The Upps are good people but they are being deceived by the people they have placed at the top of their company. Rather than inspire, respect and be a part of their teams, these leaders have their employees feeling fearful instead of empowered. They will continue to lie to the owners in efforts to hide their own shortcomings by blaming their employees and other divisions. Teamwork and trust are two things that you won't find there. It's a hostile working environment all around. These presidents are destroying this company's reputation. I wish I had known how disorganized and hostile it was before working there. I should've known based on the high turnover rates and unhappy employees. And those batch of fake positive reviews below are clearly in response to the honest and real reviews they received.

Pros

nice kitchen area with 2 televisions running all day with news, sports deli and work out facility in the concourse ample underground parking cell phone and laptop during duration of employment

Cons

The "work-life" balance in non-existent. they expect you IN YOUR DESK at 8am, or you will get reprimanded by management, and if you think you are leaving at 5pm, FORGET ABOUT IT ! The "Recruiting Manager" matriculate from her 7th floor corner/window office, to a cubicle near the exit of recruiting at about 4pm, and monitor when employees leave. So you feel compelled to sit at your desk until 6-ish, whether you need to or not, which is ironic because they give you a 4g cell phone and laptop, so on one hand, they try to appear to be a forward thinking company, but then slip into the prehistoric era when it comes to treating employees like adults. This all while ignoring the fact that you may have come in on Saturday for 5 hours, or worked from home until 9-10pm on occasion. There is an insanely mind-numbing weekly meeting that lends zero to productivity.
