- Compensation, compensation, compensation! They use you. You will NOT get paid what you deserve. ADC is a great place to begin and start your career, but it is not a place where you can stay for a long time. And compensation is the number 1 reason why. They love hiring new people, but wish they would do everything in their power to retain the talent they already have. Compensation is a huge problem here, so if you want to get paid well this is not the place for you.
- Career growth and opportunities is a bare minimum here. And even if there are opportunities, it doesn’t have any benefit because back to the compensation topic you don’t get fairly paid for taking on new challenges and responsibilities. An individual’s growth in their career is lacking here. If you’re looking for a constant challenge you won’t find that here.
- There’s a lot of micro-management here for some departments. Everyone who works at Alarm are all grown adults who know their responsibilities and their role. But yet there is a ton of micromanagement involved which makes you feel under appreciated at times.
- Sometimes the work you do feels like it’s under valued and under appreciated because it all goes back to the compensation where you don’t get your money’s worth fulfilling the role you do.
- Title changes take FOREVER and sometimes never even happen. In the beginning you’re promised a lot and then it takes forever for anything to get done. You’ll be told about a potential promotion, but it’ll be a year or two before you actually get it. And sometimes you never the get the promotion you’re promised.
- Poor management at times
