Pros

Ability to work from home one day a week pre-Covid Generous 21-day PTO allotment

Cons

It is unfortunate to see what was once allegedly a fun, fast-growing start-up company disintegrate due to poor management hires and constant hardware complications. Not only were broken promises and bullying from my direct boss the daily norm, but also subjection to emotional, wildly unprofessional outbursts and incommunicative, directionless leadership. Constant struggle to provide clients with honest information and deadlines due to hardware complications and shipping issues. This leads to the company constantly reimbursing accounts, trying to win back ground, and regain trust. Salary offered in offer letter was $17,000 less than what was posted online at time of application, interview, and receipt of offer letter. When I brought this up, I was told “that salary is for someone with experience. Good luck finding someone to pay you that much”. Why even offer someone a job if you’re just going to condescend their skillset? Manager expected team to remain "on call" (sometimes on weekends) to perform last minute field work during a large upgrade project despite having a team of people hired solely to perform field work. The company grew from approximately 25 people to 55 during my tenure. Tank has since downsized substantially laying off nearly half of the company due to lacking funds and frequent product-related issues. Be diligent before accepting a position.

Pros

Flexible WFH Friday Happy Hours Generous PTO

Cons

I felt taken advantage of as an employee of Tank Utility. Through COVID layoffs, the company was downsized significantly, but the work to be completed remained the same. It was difficult to see what was left of our teams trying to accomplish the work of a whole, 50-something person team. What I see is a company that will do whatever it needs to do to their employees to get ahead. Then, have roundtables about how to boost morale and work/life balance without effectively addressing the main issue. Sales team members were expected to keep upselling to customers who already had product issues that were unresolved. This was difficult to do and frankly embarrassing. When this company was last growing in size, the culture here was positive and a something people felt good about. What has followed was an unspoken negative air of stress and exhaustion, painted by the executive team to be excellent trend line of growth for the company. I am not sure how my coworkers felt, but towards the end of my time here, my morale had hit an all-time low. I would not recommend this work environment as a place to work.
