Pros

World Wide Technology has been growing at a rapid pace, they have strong financials, values and reasonable growth projections. The company core values are sincere and are extended to our employees, partners, customers and the work we perform. It definitely feels like a family within the immediate teams you work with. The executive team is amazingly friendly and sincere which does not go unnoticed by new employees - even after 5 years I hear new employees compliment this.

Cons

Given the company is rooted in STL, it is in an area that is less competitive than for example - Seattle, this makes a great job like WWT a little harder to get and people tend to camp out with very long tenures. This leads to some segments going stale or management issues but the biggest complaint I hear within the company is the sheer lack of growth opportunity. There is no where to move up to because no one really leaves. So expect to stay in your current role for a long time. That said, WWT does work with it's employees in other ways that is more personable than other companies. Part time, moving across country, illnesses in families - I've seen WWT support their employees through it all.

Thanks for your review. Yes, we are rooted in St. Louis but we remain committed to being a Growth Company both in the metropolitan area and globally. Depending on the nature of your interests, I encourage you to speak with someone about this; whether it's HR, your manager, or a manager in a department you'd like to learn more about. Again, I appreciate your feedback.

Pros

My manager was very supportive she would give great feedback and try to help me grow . The people were awesome. My coworkers were great and supportive.

Cons

For all the projects we had regional managers there was one that had it out for me. This person was relentless and I went to my manager. The problem I had with this person was they never stop coming after me and my manager tried to stop this person in their tracks, but they tried a way to come after me. My manager’s manager was kind of not a good manager because he was all about the numbers and he didn’t care about the person. He never once had a one-to-one conversation with me I noticed that he played favorites with people and it’s just not good to do that. I believe that as a senior manager, you have to get to know your team instead of hearing what other people say. There was a senior project manager out there who essentially threw me under the bus. When people would resign, all of the projects that were left behind by the previous person they would dump it on one person. It is a lot of work to dump on a person. Some managers would help you grow and there are others that will do the work behind your back on a project. There was one who would start adjusting my project numbers and get mad at me. Mind you this was my first year and this manager would throw me under the bus. “Great Workplace?” Please
