Pros

Only pro is that I was employed

Cons

-Incredibly toxic work environment, noticed mostly with the account managers, techs, and trainer. - Lots of work and you will be expected to work afterhours or oncall. There were plenty of times I worked 7 days a week without proper compensation. - Lots of empty promises here -Terrible management that does nothing about toxic work environment. - Micromanagement and you needed to fill out a timesheet for the 8 hours of work and account everything you did those 8 hours, which would incentivize charging customers "bogus/inflated" times. - CEO drives expensive cars, and will yell at you if something bad happens. When you ask for a raise they complain and say there is no budget... - Any company profits, instead of being shared with employees are turned into unhealthy snacks. - You will work so much here you will burn out, the pay is lower then industry standard, and huge turnover rate. - No appreciation for hard work, guarantee you talk to any tech here and they will agree they hate working there.

Pros

Life lesson on toxic workplaces to avoid.

Cons

The techs like to throw their own teammates under the bus yet make rookie mistakes and milk the support case timers(lazy). These are the same techs being promoted by management and given work from home privileges. Management likes to yell when things are not going well and accounts are lost due to poor communication between tiers. Promises were made upon hire but not kept.
