Pros

Great company to work for. They truly care about their employees and ensuring people are where they want to be in their career. - On-site Health Center - Great effort to keep high employee morale - Executives who truly care about their employee satisfaction - Day of Caring - 1 day/yr PTO to volunteer - Extra PTO day for Wellness screenings - Mid-size company ensures you don't get lost in the mix. They have the resources to truly help your career and provide a lot of variety of experience. They encourage you to move around departments/organizations if your interests lead you that direction Three times in the past month, when I have been asked where I work and I answer, "World Wide Technology", I get the question, "Is that really as great of a place to work as it sounds?" These questions were followed up with the person telling me a story of meeting either Dave Steward (Co-founder/Chairman) or Jim Kavanaugh (CEO) via the Boy Scouts or the local soccer community. It makes me proud to work for a company whose owners instill so much local inspiration in our community.

Cons

WWT is growing very quickly, so it's a challenge to ensure the culture is not lost with the near exponential growth.

Thanks for your post. We feel we have an enjoyable and informal working environment. That being said, it's also a very responsible and accountable culture. We've been very busy due to our rapid growth but we are flexible with our employees and their needs for balance with work. Thanks again and good luck with your new career.
