Pros
Well this use to be a good company but in the past few years its gone totally down hill. The favorable reviews on here are totally bogus. I've asked the people in these positions who supposedly wrote the reviews and they didn't write them. It's a small company to it's not hard to find out. Plus in reading them it's obvious they were write by the same person, all about the same time and to make the company look better than it really is. There is one other honest review and it was not 5 stars. Believe that one. I really couldn't think of any Pros other than we do get paid and we have beer in the kitchen.
Cons
Slimy sales force will promise anything to get the sale. It is then up to us to make everything work and deal with the client when they get upset. We are told to tell the client that it is in the contract they signed. All problems are blamed on the engineer who is promptly replaced and then the cycle repeats. Management takes no responsibility and is only concerned with the next company they can rip off. We are told to offer solutions that cost more, are not the best and make calnet the most money. We are told to push products that have the largest margin and say they are better products. We are then paid pennies for commissions. We are told to keep the client happy and in many cases we have to work for free, meaning calnet doesn't pay us, to do so. Everything is rigged to screw the employee so management can make the most money. Working non-billable hours is a requirement of the job. Turn over is very high except for the lifers who have found their way into managment. Un-taxed bonuses are also given out to the most popular employees on a monthly basis. This is suppose to boost moral and say you to could make extra money if you only work harder. These awards are otherwise useless. The lifers have them strung around their offices in some morbid contest.
