I enjoy the atmosphere and having a flexible schedule. Working with a lot of very smart individuals is also a big plus.

I do not have much other than the pay is some what traded for all the niceties that they provide, beyond that I don't have much

Pros

World Wide Technology has been growing at a rapid pace, they have strong financials, values and reasonable growth projections. The company core values are sincere and are extended to our employees, partners, customers and the work we perform. It definitely feels like a family within the immediate teams you work with. The executive team is amazingly friendly and sincere which does not go unnoticed by new employees - even after 5 years I hear new employees compliment this.

Cons

Given the company is rooted in STL, it is in an area that is less competitive than for example - Seattle, this makes a great job like WWT a little harder to get and people tend to camp out with very long tenures. This leads to some segments going stale or management issues but the biggest complaint I hear within the company is the sheer lack of growth opportunity. There is no where to move up to because no one really leaves. So expect to stay in your current role for a long time. That said, WWT does work with it's employees in other ways that is more personable than other companies. Part time, moving across country, illnesses in families - I've seen WWT support their employees through it all.

Thanks for your review. Yes, we are rooted in St. Louis but we remain committed to being a Growth Company both in the metropolitan area and globally. Depending on the nature of your interests, I encourage you to speak with someone about this; whether it's HR, your manager, or a manager in a department you'd like to learn more about. Again, I appreciate your feedback.
