Pros

A Miserable Company indeed.

Cons

Everything. Read reviews of non-management here. They all say the same thing, and they are true! False management reviews are the only reason Tierpoint hovers around a 3.0 rating. The worst managers ever. Nobody says "I have a great manager" here because they're all terrible. Clueless. Very little IT security here as well. Sales in the tank due to lack of direction. Culture is the worst of any company I've ever worked for. People are miserable here. high turnover. Technology from the late 90's, and mentality as another reviewer put it- "From the 1980's" Backwards company. Non-visionary. It wants to be sold, and there are no takers- What more is there to say? Oh- Jerry is a Poor CEO with a history of leading failing companies- ie- Charter communications. How often is your cable out? Know that Jerry had a hand in that.

Pros

Free soda, water, coffee, tea Mints in the lobby Rampant gossip (if that's your daily work-life thing) including from "Management"

Cons

1980s mentality approach to most everything from the top down. “Be happy you have a job” style. “Encouraged to be part of the solution” as long as it aligns with what they want to hear and you fall in line with what they want done. 95% of any recognition from above only comes when a sales person scores a large monthly revenue purchase, lower amounts get no acknowledgement. For the rest of us it only means more work without recognition. The bus comes at people forward and backwards with no support nor real know how of leadership - especially when middle management feels threatened for being exposed as useless or ineffective. Right hand is clueless, left hand has no clue leaving everyone else stuck in the middle. Set people up to fail is their way of life. Good people leave when used up / fed up with the constant lack of direction and blame game. Less than stellar people who should be gone are dug in. Blame game everywhere. Micromanagers In every department. Useless and ineffective management in many areas. Temper tantrums, back stabbing, toxic “leadership” at all levels. Zero culture. Little to no lead by example. Constant chaos and lack of direction (no, this is not what "fast paced environment" is supposed to mean) Priorities change on a daily basis (then refer back to the top of this list) Little to no advancement opportunity. If you want to care about the work you do and the company you work for because they give back, stay away from Tierpoint. It's not a two way street by any stretch of the imagination.

Pros

Rapidly growing and expanding company with strong leadership and management teams. Many opportunities for career advancement. Ability to touch many different technologies and provide custom solutions for customers. Great work-life balance, PTO, benefits and salary.

Cons

Limited company sponsored training Culture still seems a bit formal for the tech industry
