Austin Academy

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Knowledgeable trainers at the academy who are always willing to help in any way they can. Good job opportunities will be found for you in IT by the great Account Managers. Projects can be challenging but are a good benchmark of your knowledge and are graded in a way that if you understand the most important concepts you won't have a problem passing. Great first employer if you are right out of school. Paid training.

Cons

Some of the training material and exercises need to be rewritten and/or updated. Pace of training can vary from very slow to rapid. While the opportunity given to you to get your foot in the door at a major company is great, the pay is less than the industry average. Your salary will be about 45-50k your first year. This is not a problem for me as without the training provided I would have never been able to get a job in the IT field. Dress code is old-fashioned compared to many start-ups and tech jobs, but is getting better. Commute to the Austin WeWork location is terrible since it's downtown.
