Avantages

If you are a remote Services employee, and work on a dedicated contract, the company leaves you alone and lets you do what that contract requires done. They do try, somewhat, to keep that contract.

Inconvénients

The company is more focused on Sales, and not so focused on Services. The few Sales people who are assigned to go out, find Services contracts for the Services people to go work, and follow through on renewing those contracts don't cover their assigned area. They stick to the one major city, and that's it. This leaves remote dedicated Services guys in a lurch when a contract ends, is not renewed due to negligence, and no new contracts within 120 miles. The company advertises itself as a Global company, and markets itself as such. When it comes to Services, though, EMEA and APAC are not covered. This puts the company at a disadvantage, as they are unable to get Global Services contracts with Global clients due to no FTE EMEA or APAC presence (instead they contract to a partner on a short term basis) for companies that require Global contracts. The company is unwilling to put forth the effort to expand to these areas, even after it has been raised. The company's senior management seems unstable. Every month, at least 2 emails, sometimes more, come out about some member of senior management leaving, being reassigned, or being replaced.

Decent healthcare, with an onsite doctor if you are close enough Reasonable PTO, plus extra mental health days, as well as sick time Have employee assistance program

Inconvénients

Everything else. The infrastructure team is considered and treated as the black sheep. WE are not included in company-wide initiative or get togethers. (Yes, they have performative inclusion, but try being the only tech support in a room full of Sales) The salary is horrific. Entry level starts ok, but then they flood you with additional responsibilities outside of your pay grade and then never actually pay you what you are worth. How it happens—Starting at a lower position and then being promoted to a title that no longer exists, so you'll keep your old title and just get new and more responsibilities. Then, they cap your salary at the lower position's top, and you have no way to advocate because you aren't "really" in that title. Then they will slowly erode the entire client base by making idiotic client promises that cannot be filled without intensive work, which all goes to a different team, and yours is phased out. All while they are stating we have great job security. 5 Layoffs/RIFs/Silent Termination waves in 6 years Removal of whole teams that support infrastructure, with no replacement—for example, axing the ENTIRE Quality Control team and having no replacement force, just telling individual teams to figure it out.
