      -Strong exposure to enterprise IT environments, tools, and processes. -Good collaboration with peers across IT teams. -Solid experience handling Tier 1/2 support, AV, onboarding/offboarding, and ticketing at scale. -Well-known company with good resume value.

      Cons

      -Growth opportunities for contractors felt limited and slow, with unclear timelines around conversion. -Advancement into higher-level IT roles appeared heavily gated and not always aligned with demonstrated capability. -Limited ownership or autonomy for motivated contractors looking to take on more responsibility. -Communication around career progression could feel vague or non-committal.

      Supportive Sales Culture with Real Growth Potential

      Sales
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      One of the best parts about working here is the strong support within the sales team. People are motivated and competitive, but not in a cutthroat way. Everyone is genuinely invested in each other’s success, which helps reps consistently hit their quotas, which isn’t always the case in sales. The team also does a great job of recognizing top performers each month, which keeps morale high. On top of that, there are real opportunities for career growth, with a solid number of promotions happening each year,

      Cons

      cycle brings great energy and the feeling of “fresh starts,” but it also means the pressure to hit targets is always present. That said, the team’s collaboration and camaraderie make it much more manageable, and even fun at times.
