Pros

The people are awesome! The location is close to New Hartford. You make your own hours.

Cons

No real hands on training. Systems are all old and do not support the work that the clients request. The work is never ending and no slow points to take a vacation. if you leave for even one day the amount of work you come back to is not worth having a day off. Every department is very short staffed!

Annual salary increase this year isn't until September which is odd.

Pros

Great benefits including PTO, health care and other benefits.

Cons

Very much a brother-in-law feel when it comes to promotions and praise. If you aren't in the cool club, you will be shunned and left out. Management also makes business decisions without understanding the niche part of the various industries.
