Pros

Opportunities to work from home when you beg your manager. A lot of free food events to accommodate the low salaries and bellow standard benefits. Although PTO was great, you start at 15 days which is nice. Good intention on the work culture but poorly practiced. Good company logo and good fun events .

Cons

NetSmart leadership style is 99% based on politic. The company has been having real trouble of implementing a real dev-op culture. There is no training provided , neither tuition reimbursement , neither continue education courses provided on sites. Managers have a lack of experience as far technical and leadership. Example of bad leadership I experience : I heard a manager yelling at a his engineer like a kid front of the whole team. Example of lack of Technical skills : There is an engineering manager at NetSmart who has doesn't and has never coded in his life but he's managing developers . The company tends to promote diversity , it's all a JOKE. The company is hugely white dominated with racial discrimination. Racial and age discrimination is a real issue at NetSmart. If you're a young average male and is really good at making yourself look good , you will do well at NetSmart. I literally heard a engineering manager and a VP saying "we typically like to hire young engineers in their 20s with no kids and neither responsibilities" , really ??? I see here "age" discrimination. No celebration for Martin Luther King day ! Btw NetSmart is a good stepping stone !!! if you find better, get out before they get ride of you . They're well known for getting ride of people at the end of the quarters !!!

Pay is not great, but definitely a decent chance of getting good bumps if you put in the work. Benefits are just okay. Flexible Paid Time Off(Pro and Con)

Pros

The team I work with is dedicated and loyal to the company and takes an ownership mentality.

Cons

If you care, you’ll give up your nights, your weekends, your blood, sweat, tears, joy, you’ll miss family events, even health appointments, your house will fall apart, your relationships will suffer, and you might even get asked to shorten your time away. There is nobody in the positions of the right help, and far too many managers, and too many per diem who have other jobs that can’t give enough hours but hold per diem positions hostage. When you ask for help, it’s always answered with a “We are trying”. Yet it’s been years of asking and the ask still falls on deaf ears. The company is missing opportunities to grow a huge revenue stream because they won’t create structure and processes; and positions to manage those structures. There are so many missed opportunities here, in a field that really needs us. I don’t know how to make my voice louder. It’s just not heard. We are top heavy in management. We need certain tasks completed, and are not getting what we need, no matter how many meetings we have about it. In fact, I don’t have time for the meetings anymore. We didn’t even celebrate Nurse’s Week. Not a single person even mentioned it. They work you to within an ounce left of your sanity, and then there’s absolutely no recognition or cohesiveness or celebration of any achievmemts instead, it’s “We didn’t make our quota.”. It’s all hurry up and get your work done, but then slow down because you’re making mistakes. Pay is mediocre for this level of experience and expertise-non-management level positions elsewhere offer far more in salary. Plus all the money you’ll spend to try to get things done just to manage your life, like paying for grocery delivery because you’ll never see the inside of a grocery store again. It’s madness. Not a sustainable career.
