      Not What It Used To Be

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      PTO Good insurance compared to most employers

      Cons

      Life/Work Ratio Favoritism Sexual Harassment The company claims to care about it's employees and loves to flaunt it's rating as one the 100 Greatest Places to Work, but it's all for show. They will work a department into the ground, mandatory OT including full Saturday shifts, all due to understaffing. The understaffing is due to the company refusing to hire temporary contractors to reduce the workload because they would have to let them go once things slowed down, and that would hurt their image. They care more about being perceived as a good company to work for than actually being a good company to their employees. The company will boast that they've had one of their most profitable years ever and then hand out raises less than cost of living. Pay is not competitive for the field. If you aren't a favorite of your supervisor, you re going to get bad raises and you're not going to move up in the company regardless of your experience, education, etc.

      This is very disappointing to hear, especially the point on sexual harassment; which is absolutely not tolerated. Please bring details of this to your senior management and/ or HR so it can be investigated immediately. Thank you.

      It's a paycheck

      Senior security engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - benefits - decent pay - great environment for folks young in their careers to learn

      Cons

      - legacy hardware reseller, clueless on selling, scoping services - nepotism, it's a family business. Everyone is related in some way - siloed business units create frustrating projects... While some units may appear cool like the ATC, it's an extremely poor cross pollination between other areas such as PS. - Good luck getting training.. The ATC has a lot of limitations and you'll have to sign your life away to have them pay for anything. - There are a lot of smart people that work for WWT, but it's rare they stick around or they're buried in multiple projects. - Management doesn't listen to the talent hired. They have have/had hundred of ps folks from various consulting firms but would rather roll the dice on process and procedures. - delivery of services can be complex/painful due to unnecessary process and procedures. - imagine trying to deliver on a poorly under scoped project because of an archaic sales team who can't get customers correct quotes for equipment, then showing up on site for you to get the blame from both customer and management. I could keep going but there is already a lot of negative feedback that really says it all.
