Pros

My current management is great. Everyone is extremely helpful. I'm not sure what the deal is with the other reviewers here. If you actually work hard and put fourth the effort to communicate with all team members including other remote locations it's great. Just pick up the phone and everyone treats you kindly. Yeah some information you have to dig for but that's the same for any company. Very laid back bunch of folks. Advice to anyone who is looking to join - apply. See if the team fit is for you.

Cons

No real cons at the moment. Just little tune ups here and there on the floor and some in the office but that's kind of the point of the work.

Pros

There is a lot that I can learn on the job. Great family health benefits. Allows you to get valuable experience in the Data Center field. There are a lot of great customers that are full of great information and you have access to a lot of technology if you take the time to pay attention.

Cons

Pay and not really able to "move up the ladder." Communication between management, customer care, and operations. High employee turnover and if you are sick, there isn't anyone who can really relieve you. Employer does not match 401k.

Pros

If you want to be an under paid data center technician forever and you like doing everyone’s job ( janitorial, tile cutter, shipping/ receiving, mailman, security, rack builder, stocking beverages, garbage man, and plus all the IT side of things).

Cons

Little to no opportunity in moving up with the company, unless you’re in the Kansas City which I have seen email promoting a few individual that are already in high position. Even as a datacenter technician you will do customer care, network operation center work but won’t get equal opportunity. Top management has been ineffective and tyrannical, forced out many good people. Company has an arrogant streak that does not reflect reality of its marginal products & service. Weak management at all location, (Dallas, TX, Kansas City, MO, Eagan and Edina, MN) and lack of communication informing data center technician about important dates. Could not afford simple tools for technician to use, some of the tech would bring their own. They could not afford simple time clock for employee to clock in and it was base on honor system. Sales team, sale engineer, GM/ DC manager, would not honest about coming into work. They do not put in the required time at the office, unless CEO, CFO, VP are coming into town. Upper management will take trip to MN location and stay for a couple days just to do an hour meeting that could be done via web conference. Company isn’t growing when they cannot get a full staff in MN location. Benefit is not good, after a couple visit to the dental clinic, stated it would cover but then later would get a payment owe because insurance decline. Some of the managers were trying to force all employees to get high deductible health plan.
