A good place to start in IT, bad place to linger.

Technical support engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

You will get a lot of exposure to a wide variety of tech and the bar for entry isn't too high, at least for working in support. It's a great place to learn and works well as a first job in tech IF you are good at teaching your yourself...

Cons

...that being said, company training and documentation is awful. You are expected to learn everything about their products on the fly. Also management doesn't offer many opportunities to advance or transition within or between departments, so it's not worth staying for too long. Pay is below average for the amount of work they expect from you.

Upper management does not care.

Business Outlook

Pros

Support teams are close knit and it's day to day a good environment. Hybrid policy is ok.

Cons

Upper management from CA do not care. Two rounds of layoffs with no clear plan of action moving forward. Any progress takes months of back and forth, problems are not addressed. I'd make the same pay in a fast food restaurant.
