      Pros

      Big high dollar Cisco sales focus. Big money and opportunity for sales reps. Little trickle down to service engineers. Fancy annual company trip. Very high quality and smart technical experts.

      Cons

      Weak management. Deceptive sales. Lots of over promise/under deliver.

      Pros

      Your ideas and opinions are not only heard but welcomed. Management is constantly brainstorming for ideas on how to keep morale high and how to reward hard work. Despite the rapid growth, the company still has a We Are Family feel. Management talks the talk and walks the walk by abandoning their traditional executive offices and sitting in open cubes with the rest of the company.

      Cons

      It is not perfect; no company is. Managers are still learning to manage, but the good news is that they're always striving to improve and are always open to feedback. It's still a start-up at heart, which means there are a lot of moving parts and constant change, which isn't necessarily a bad thing; it can just take some getting used to.

      Pros

      Good teamwork with local coworkers, excellent pay, ability to work from home whenever needed.

      Cons

      - Poor medical benefits - Little to no communication outside main location - Management lacks focus and direction and has no idea who reports to them - Dispatch schedules onsite support with the client without putting it on the dispatch calendar then blames the field engineer when the client gets upset - Certifications and degrees required to keep jobs but no financial aid from CDI; employees unable to afford the education are let go - Management keeps changing job descriptions and company procedures without documenting them then punish the employee
