Pros

Best health benefits I have ever had but they are needed to offset poor wages. ! That's the only bright spot.

Cons

Employees are overworked, 70-80 hours a week, 7 days a week. Turnover extremely high. Upper management repeatedly self promote themselves from Manger, to Sr Manager, to Director, etc. (sometimes within a year or so) while Middle and Lower Management wages are not equitable with other employers in area and the poor little hourly areas are overworked and under appreciated, poor training programs in place for management and hourly employees, have shown no improvement over the last couple years although they constantly say positive changes are coming. Have no clue how to retain talented employees and instead of promoting the most talented employees they normally promote the ones who has been their the longest and whine despite them lacking the skills needed. Company is on a dead-end road.

Pros

There are not any pros this job can offer.

Cons

The pay is terrible, even though Vantec claims to be competitive with pay. The benefits are terrible. This company has had catered events, and because of budgeting they asked employees the next day for money to pay for the food. A manager told employees during a morning meeting to not forget that they are a number and can be replaced at anytime. Core workers are treated terribly. They do not give raises, and only give one bonus check a year. They do not value workers that have been employed for years. I'd personally look for another job before wasting your time here.
