Pros

SHI has a great culture amongst the people. During my time with SHI, I have met many friends and fostered many relationships. SHI also has diversity programs which make employees feel included.

Cons

The biggest con I would say is the compensation. The company does not pay well even if you are a tenured employee. In order to maximize your salary you need to be an Account Executive in sales. Also, there is disconnect between management and the employees. Senior Management does not communicate properly with middle management and that causes issues with those who are lower in the hierarchy. Although SHI has a promote from within culture, the salary does not match the promotion. Bonuses are taxed like commission checks and from a culture standpoint, it becomes more about who you know versus what you know.

Pros

Great place to work for especially for those in information technology looking to learn more from software and hardware vendors. The meet and greets + lunch and learns help you learn more about the products and services they provide.

Cons

None, I’ve had a positive experience with them!

Pros

Work from home, paid for career development trainings/certifications, and depending on your role, flexible hours

Cons

-Management/Senior Leadership teams are very disorganized and often change processes several times throughout the year, without consulting the teams that would be impacted -Tools are extremely outdated -What mattered to senior leadership was the velocity of closing projects, vs quality of delivery -Extremely valid criticism was often ignored -Very difficult to get promoted -SHI loves automating everything they can, so a lot of times, work ends up feeling very tedious and repetitive -Day to day work very often includes tedious process approvals from management, slowing down pace of work with no real feedback given during the approval process -Met a lot of people who were great, but met far more who are toxic -Everything feels escalated even if the “issue” is manageable -EXTREMELY micromanaged
