Non-competitive compensation for the industry standards in the area for the hours you put in. There is very little work-life balance. Extremely cliquish, high school company culture especially among the Account Managers and Onsite Engineers/Admins. There is a lot of favoritism from the top. Ntiva does not set people up with the resources needed to be successful. They constantly operate on shortage and expect miracles. The performance of technical staff is based on how much they like who they're working with and the Account Manager they're working for. It's pretty much a 'fit in or be fired' environment. You either 100% buy into the company culture and mesh with your co-workers or you disappear. So-so benefits that don't kick in on date of hire. Completely out-of-touch CEO and Management that fosters toxic business relationships and belligerent, abusive customers. Would much rather sweep poor processes under the rug rather than fix.
This is a company that just cannot seem to "make it out of second gear" as another review very accurately put it. This is due to all of the above. You can't really call Ntiva a start-up at this point. Ntiva has been around for a decade. At this point it's just a failure to launch. As you'd expect, all of this makes it very difficult for Ntiva to hire, keep good people that would rather be great at their job, and get things done than be your best friend.
The CEO has way too large of a presence in everyday matters because the CEO occupies at least 3 positions within the company. There are customers that have ties to the CEO directly whether they be personal or business. So you can also expect a lot of conflicts of interests. Oh, and 20 e-mails/calls over the weekend and at night from virtually anyone though not agreeing to be an on-call employee. Ntiva has no sense of boundaries or work-life balance. Also they will not tell you about all the perks up front. Such as phone reimbursement as I was taking calls on my personal phone. In short, don't believe all the "Best Place To Work" hype.
