Pros

Opportunity to make decent money if you can put up with the poor management

Cons

(First- take a look at all the amazing reviews of the company and consider this- if you were to write a review, do you really care about how other employees are performing? Every single "glowing" review says the exact same thing. Quite suspicious. Like all the five star reviews you may see on yelp. Too good to be true. Cmon. Everybody has some sort of gripe. I personally don't care what my peers are doing, as long as it doesn't affect my paycheck! It only makes me look better if they suck! Furthermore look at how hard the company is playing defense with the novels they write about "one terrible employee" and compare the reviews to other great companies who don't bother to play the blame game. They let the company and the employees tell all- the good, bad, ugly. The real reviews stand for themselves.) I'll keep this relatively short- I was hired as a field sales representative. The actual position is regional sales manager. I wasn't told in my interview that I would be managing a team of technicians, and that the technician's drive and abilities would drastically affect my paycheck. Great techs made me money. The crappy ones cost me money and negated my efforts in the field. The management stinks and the company is falling apart. The operations team is lacking in communication, and the company can't seem to get it together. Everyone is putting their heads in the sand and ignoring the glaring red flags.

We've posted some facts for those who want to get beyond the misinformation above. Let's start with: Aside what it says above, our paid time off policy has always been: 1 paid vacation week after one year, plus another 56 hours paid time off 2 paid vacation weeks after two years, plus another 56 hours paid time off 3 paid vacation weeks after five years, plus another 56 hours paid time off Note: senior level tech or executive-level jobs entitled to an additional week paid time off. Aside from what it says above, our turnover rate is lower than the nationwide average of 15%. The remainder of the post is similarly false. So why the "misinformation"? A disgruntled former employee routinely posts information not consistent with actual events at the company. In this forum, many current and former employees have taken the time to post their genuine, real-life, positive experiences with our rapidly growing company. We've also taken the time to give detailed replies so you get all the information. So--give the truth consideration too. Also importantly, if you get the opportunity, talk personally to one of our recruiters. Thanks :-)

Pros

Working remotely for the last 6 years has been great. The company has seen tremendous growth and I think it is largely due to the tenure of employees, their deep historical knowledge, and the care they have to about the company and their teams.

Cons

This year people in the office got raises and those of us at home got skipped over completely. It's worth pointing out that most of the longest tenured employees are all working from home. The people who have been here the longest, know the most and have the most invested in this company are the ones getting passed over.
