Pros

Job stability in difficult times. Some friendly staff & management. Good parking & facilities & a nice lake. Some training provided. Most people I know that have left are doing much better career wise, me included.

Cons

Very hard to get promoted on merit alone. Face fit culture & old boys mentality. Poor pay. Lazy middle management. Hard to get on training courses if your good at your job ( Quote from my manager " If i put you on that training course what's stopping you leaving for more pay ? I can't take that risk " ). Seen some staff in certain areas bullied & treated as outcasts by management.

Pros

Nothing. They dont listen anyway !

Cons

If you are an IT professional, with great technical skills that loves going above and beyond for your customers stay away from this company because they treat their top employees very poorly. If you are friends with the manager, that's another story. You can come in whenever you want or not come in at al.l You get to chill in the tech room all day and watch movies, youtube videos and or facetime with your friends while the ticket queues are all backed up and customers desperately need help. Unlimited nap time in the conference rooms or the cafeteria and if you are hungry just help yourself to lunch and never pay for it. ComputaCenter is one of the worst companies I have ever worked for as an IT Professional. Their payrates are not up to todays standard IT rates, health insurance is overpriced and they force you to use your vacation time when the customer has their Christmas Shutdown. They hire kids, that have no qualifications or knowledge about anything IT related to solve critical technical issues in a scientific environment that could cost the customer a lot of money if handled wrong. I worked late many times because of all the slackers and kids this company hires without properly getting compensated and/or never got a thank you. Yet when I said something to management all I get is grief. Hopefully the customer will wake up sooner then later and go with another vendor.
