Pros

Nice people, pay is not bad. Everybody is helpful.

Cons

It is a slowly dying company - just look at the stock price. Very limited career growth. Search someplace else for a job especially with the job market being "hot" in 2017.

Pros

Brand recognition in the marketplace Exposure to a wide array of IT technologies FREE high school cafeteria style lunches Very expensive ergonomic desk chairs

Cons

No long-term/strategic vision to promote organic sales growth by senior management Employee morale at an all time low thanks to no pay raises or a formal performance incentive plan Compensation plan changed four times in less than 12 months Inaccurate data reporting leads to skewed reporting practices which ultimately effects ones wallet Beware of the quarterly job cuts for the typical below plan performance standards

Black Box Response

I apologize that you did not have a good work experience with Black Box. I agree with your all of the "Pros" you identified. In regard to the "Cons" we are focused on being a strong IT product and service company. As of this past year we have instituted an annual performance review process that aligns with our fiscal year that ends each March. We also have started compensation planning that is done on an annual basis where everyone's compensation is reviewed and pay increased are aligned with performance. Annually our sales compensation plans are rolled out to the team at the beginning of the fiscal year. Previously we had multiple businesses that had many team member practices that were not aligned. Black Box is committed on excellence and merit, and values diversity in team members. David M Pasternak, Vice President of Human Resources
