Pros

There are a few really wonderful people that work at Volt. I worked for them for 10 years the first time and 8 years the second time. The first time was a great work experience. The second time, not so much.

Cons

No room for advancement in my job. I had the worst manager I have ever worked for which made my 8 years there pretty miserable. I was never given an opportunity to lead the team in any way, even though they all came to me for help. The expectations for the job were in some respects ridiculous because it was subjective in terms of additional information required for proposals. I used to love Volt, but, my last few years the company was steadily going down hill. Costs were cut so tight that we only received 2% increases every other year. Nothing was done to appreciate employees except a picnic in the parking lot and Christmas lunch in the lobby. Pretty sad.

Pros

Opportunity to meet and work with amazing people and client companies

Cons

They do not match 401k, you need to find your own coverage to use PTO. Operations is always the scapegoat when something goes wrong. Employees in any department that are not sales are undervalued and under compensated. Nepotism is huge at this company. No job security, layoffs every quarter.
