Systems Administrator - Senior Systems Administrator ProAptiv Employee Review

Proaptiv has been a great company to work for. Having started out at a larger company I've really enjoyed the small company atmosphere. Less overhead and a more personable/family feel. With multiple contracts available there are opportunities to move around if something isn't quite working as expected. The Owners/Management team mostly work on contracts as well, this makes them pretty easy to get in touch with online when needed. Small management team you can get to know personally. Proaptiv likes to give back to it's employees with multiple great benefits including many corporate outings. Great employees of all experience levels. I've also found management to be receptive to input when it comes to benefit changes and other corporate suggestions.

With most owners/managers working on contract, corporate communications can lack a bit sometimes. This has been getting better, it seems they are working on this and have added some middle managers to help reach employees better. Some employees work on a contract without other Proaptive employees. This can make it difficult to meet other employees but the corporate events can help.

I’ve been with ProAptiv for many years. Below are some of the reasons why I haven’t left. - When I feel like I need a new challenge, management has gone out of their way to find different and interesting work for me. - They have always cared about my opinion on corporate or contract matters. - They hire smart people, knowing that these good people are directly responsible for creating a good reputation with their contract partners and customers. - Management works overtime when it comes to finding contract slots for employees if their position may be at risk (for one reason or another). This takes that burden off of the employees themselves. - They paid for my post-graduate degree.

Although they care about employee feedback, they are slow to inject corporate change when it may be needed, despite their size.
