Pros

Some friendly and helpful people work here …

Cons

Politics at every level, large org a lot of collaboration but everyone works from a self centred mindset looking for self interest, account managers are dim don’t know anything don’t let you close to customers and actively hide their relationships just want you to do all the work and will get 50% of your commission on every deal as per company policy (I kid you not its nuts).. AMs have their favourites and cliques so many people spend half thier time sucking up to AMs… one must spend half the time dealing with politics and endless company meetings and reviews not much selling going on… Everyone is based on thin margins the company is very cheap the kitchens don’t even have coffee machines they have tea bags and a box of instant coffee, the annual sales kick off usually local and everyone must share a room to save money … this is suppose to be a billion dollar company !!! As a result people are fake and insincere backstabbers and sly… nasty people It’s a Reseller and what’s to become something more in the cloud space … don’t see it happening All in all a cult like mentality with mediocre people managing to stay long term and serve thier interests .. quarky and weird

Pros

Great location, great co workers, great leadership

Cons

Can be a bit too sales focused and forget that other departments are just as important. Lots of perks for sales that are not availbale to anyone else in the company

Pros

Pay and job title are crazy nice

Cons

This place is less data center more fulfillment center style. Walk in and are told to just copy that rack. No training. Then if you make a mistake they get mad even though nothing was explained.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for highlighting both the positives and the areas where we can improve. We’re pleased to hear that you value the pay and job title, but it’s disappointing to read that your experience with training and support has not met expectations. Starting in a new environment without clear guidance can be challenging, particularly in a technical role where structure and consistency are important. Your comments around the need for more effective onboarding, clearer instruction, and better support are important. We recognise that learning by observation alone is not sufficient for everyone, and creating an environment where people feel confident and set up for success is a key part of being a place where people matter. We also take seriously your point about how mistakes are handled. A supportive culture should ensure that people are guided constructively, especially while they are still learning. Thank you again for your honest feedback, which helps us continue improving the experience we provide
