Those things that come with working for a smaller company: fewer people doing more jobs and communication within the organization is sometimes a challenge.

Its Only As Bad as You Make It

Pros

Great Facilities, Great Workers, Decent Pay & Benefits, Future looks promising, growing....growing.... growing

Cons

"A few bad apples trying to spoil the whole bunch" If you are not happy with your job and you don't recommend this company to a friend....go somewhere else!!!! In the current culture it is hard to get rid of those who do not perform. Too many people wanting a free ride and not willing to do a good days work... Way too many different application/software to monitor and supply input in order to get 1 job simple task done. The OSC should be a one stop shop for requests from employees....Example: we shouldn't have to contact an individual department to get a password reset ....if the OSC doesn't have the capability then they should have the responsibility to coordinate the efforts to get it done.

Highly Dysfunctional and Unorganized

Pros

Nice facilities/offices, pleasant co-workers, flexible work hours

Cons

Inept management has little to no accountability and trickles down within their organizations. The same management team lacks direction, focus and a cohesive strategy. Teams work in silos, and one department usually has no clue what another department is doing. Very few formal processes in place (that are actually adhered to by all departments). Obvious power struggles exist between executives and upper management. The result? Everyone goes off and does his own thing. I say his, because there are very few females or minorities included within the "inner circle" of the executive team. As more employees leave, positions are left vacant for long periods of time (if ever filled), and the workloads are passed off to the already overworked staff (who actually do try to do as much as they can). Management's expectations of completing projects/tasks is totally unrealistic - everything is always last minute and needed "tomorrow," Since many departments are short staffed and overworked, employees have little time to deliver, and the end product is usually satisfactory at best. The performance review process (if you want to call it that) is a joke. Some managers conduct reviews one way while others do it another way, while others don't even bother. Many employees have no idea what type of pay raise and/or bonus they will receive until after the fact. No one that I know takes these reviews seriousl, because managers are so unorganized and wait until the very last minute. Clearly, management is more concerned about what the board members and share holders think than they do about their employees. Maybe that's why the company has lost many of their best people over the past few years?

Thank you for the review. As with any organization, leaders often have differing views ... which is what can drive 'out-of-the-box' thinking and innovation. Our rapid growth has definitely meant challenges for everyone, but we have made great strides in developing our current strategy, which aligns the different areas of QTS. Cross-functional teams are working together to develop coordinated strategies to help drive success and continued growth. When it comes to open positions, we do take great care during the interview process to ensure we are bringing people into our QTS family who will be a good fit for our culture, people and customers. We are happy to say we get that right most of the time. That does sometimes mean it takes longer to fill certain positions, but we do feel the effort is worth the end result. Don Swartz, SVP, Operations & Technology
