      Pros

      Prior to being purchased by Black Box Network Services, this company had a small family feel, but had a thriving active business. Folks in the Austin location worked well together. Employees were expected to work hard and be efficient, smart, and business saavy. But they were rewarded with 1/2 day paid Fridays sometimes, BBQs on site, Christmas parties with free food and flex work schedules.

      Cons

      Post purchase by Black Box, employees are now just a commodity and number. Team atmosphere has disappeared and so have the luxuries of a small company. Corporate is pretty far removed from day to day operations and impose restrictions that do not fit the original business model.

      Pros

      Great Local people to work with.

      Cons

      Even with the great local coworkers, you're just a number to the bean counters. Way too much emphasis on the earnings for the month, not the future. Laying off good employees to make the months revenue look better, is a terrible way of doing business. Of course the bean counters have a different opinion, maybe one day, they will experience "being a number".
