Pros

-Co-workers who were not 'office staff' tended to be nice. -Pay was decent

Cons

- If you are salaried or hourly, prepare to clock in and out and have your location monitored via your phone app by their office manager. Prepare to be screamed at and sometimes have money docked from your salary if you don't hit 40 hours, but don't expect any comp time or overtime if you go past that. - If you are a girl, you will go far with the owner, If you're willing to do him 'favors', you'll go farther (but he'll probably secretly film it). - Giant Ponzi scheme, signs on clients he has no business signing to get giant checks in an effort to pay his previous debts and failed projects, and the cycle continues. - Overcharges clients, lies to employees and clients, tries to get employees to alter records to make him look better (including server backup logs when he has been charging a client a year for a backup that was never setup because IT was never informed). - Parking is bad, you're often encouraged to park at other places of business, also, prepare to get your car sideswiped in that parking lot. - It doesn't matter how good you are at your job if you aren't willing to worship the owner as a demigod and be a "yes man". - You'll get better and cheaper healthcare in the Single market under Obamacare. - Illegally records all phone conversations without notifying callers they are being recorded (dual consent state). - They try to start all employees with 0 PTO, even salaried. - Don't expect to get a review, ever, especially if you're doing well. The owner doesn't want to give you more money or more time off, he will avoid it at all costs.

Pros

There are no pro's. The parking is hazardous and the conditions of the building in which you would be working are horrible, No toilet paper in the building for 2 days and it smells like cats too. They have house cats so hope you're not allergic!

Cons

I applied for an Administrative Assit,.. but they hired me for a sales position. I was told I would be trained, mentored and I would never be without help. I was employed with this company for 1 week and 3 days and I never received any kind of training. I asked every day for some kind of assistance and training and they always had an excuse as to why they couldn’t assist me. I was ignored, lied too ,deceived and felt invisible and not important enough! The company fired me insulting my intelligence and telling me I wasn’t self sufficient. I would never recommend this company for employment or service… BTW, I have over 20 years of selling experience . They only take care of their big clients also the PLATINUM Package so small business’s beware!!!!!. After 20 years they claim to be in business they do not have a sales team either .. I wonder why????? Very unprofessional !!!!!! Stay away … far away!

Pros

Interesting market niche. Salaries for IT technicians are slightly above market average.

Cons

Don’t trust the number of five-star reviews on here. This place didn’t know what Glassdoor was until a manager pointed out the company’s 1-star rating less than a year ago. 100% employee-paid health insurance, no compensatory time policy, salaries employees extremely high turnover rate. This place started as an infrastructure wiring company and doesn’t know any other way to do business. The owner applied a project/break-fix model to his IT offering and quickly over-extended his capability. This place doesn’t understand what it means to be an actual Managed Service Provider. Managers or technicians that try to push change are quickly let go, demoted, or replaced. I’ve been through three management teams and 30 technicians during my time here. Speaking of management - there are a wealth of managers but no structure. By the time I left there was an IT Director, IT Manager, Help Desk Manager, Operations Manager, Office Manager, Sales Manager, and Project Manager, and they are off-site doing tech work so often that I’m not sure I’ve ever seen them all in the same room. The business owner ends-around his own management team and calls the office constantly throughout the day to directly task line-level employees. Those who manage employees aren’t allowed to manage their employee’s time or workload, so none of us are sure why the positions exist at all. Phone calls are recorded and the intercom system is used to listen in on conversations without the speaker’s knowledge. Communication platforms like Slack or Facebook are not allowed to be used for any reason. Hiding a personal cell phone screen from management is met with questioning and KGB-era suspicion. The IT office just tripled the number of cameras. Communication is rarely done through email so there’s no paper trail of promises made or broken. The employee is the first person to be sacrificed to the client in an effort to save the face of the owner or the business as a whole. It doesn’t matter how good a technician is how hard he or she works. The extra mile someone puts in today becomes the standard they are judged against tomorrow. The lack of a sensible comp time policy results in employees regularly expected to work over 40 hours and receive nothing for their time.
