Pros

Great customers to work for. The environment is pleasant. Everyday their are new and exciting challenges. The company 401k unlimited match plan is awesome.

Cons

Sometimes run into growing pains. The parking lot is always full. It can be very difficult to get parking. This can also be viewed as a positive.

Pros

In general, working with companies to simplify their telecom is a fun and interesting sales process. Once you close a few deals, you have some freedom to approach this task in your own way and style. Pretty good benefits package.

Cons

Unfortunately, there are far more negatives about Granite. 1. The company lacks integrity, top to bottom, beginning to end. There is a lot of deception, from management to employees, sales reps to prospects, account management to clients. When Granite says one thing, expect another. (This includes the never ending promises that you can make MAJOR money with Granite. Sure, it's possible. But you won't.) I hear sales reps and sales managers lying to prospective clients non-stop. 2. Why don't I think you'll make the major bucks? There's hundreds of reasions, but to start, the company is just beginning the process of using a CRM. This means that most of your leads will be duplicates that will either be stolen by other deceptive sales reps or forfeited to someone with more experience than you. Also, because the leads you are assigned are crap, you will try to find new companies through search engines (like everyone else) and you will not have luck. I can't tell you how many times I got someone on the phone and they said "I just talked to XXXX and we aren't interested- please stop calling us." 3. Too many salespeople 4. Incompetence far and wide

Pros

Great place to work where contribution is recognized ! All voices are heard, all perspectives are welcomed! A company with a culture of collaboration - that's how work gets done at Granite Open door policy from CEO office to the lowest level of the organization.

Cons

Continue to optimize costs at all levels of the value chain as the business transforms into technology company
