      Pros

      Nice folks, gift cards at Christmas

      Cons

      COCC has an unwritten policy of hiring people right out of school, the less experience the better. This way your starting salary is very low and your chances to jump to another company are minimal since you don't have experience. It's alarming how few people over the age of 30 work here and if you do get in the door, your chances of advancement are slim and none. COCC is big playing favorites and they promote a college like atmosphere, someone a little older really doesn't fit in. Serious professionals with years of experience need to not apply, having a strong resume is a negative. Little or no guidance/training, low pay, and a reliance on the company is the formula. Of course once employees get some experience they jump ship immediately, it's a poorly kept secret in the industry about the high turnover at COCC. I would say they discriminate based on age, but that is very difficult to prove. However, at 5pm the parking lot looks more like a school getting out, rather than a work place done for the day

      We are aware that this is one of several reviews from the same former employee posted on multiple sources who unfortunately was one of the few who did not have a good experience here at COCC. While we always attempt to hire candidates who fit our culture, there is sometimes a disconnect. However, we believe that our eight consecutive years as a Top Workplace in Connecticut has not happened by accident, and our continued efforts to engage with our employees and respond to their feedback have been worthwhile. We continue to receive recognition from our employees, our clients, and the industry overall because of our highly engaged workforce that truly does make COCC a great place to work!

      Pros

      Fair PTO, nice lunch room, casual dress

      Cons

      Little or no advancement opportunities. It's the good ole' boys club at COCC, that operates on a " who you know basis". Hard work, reliability , and being a solid employee does count, but no at review time. If you have a relative or friend of a friend you move quickly up the ranks. If you're a "regular joe" plugging along your chances to advance are minimal. Small company, small paycheck, and small opportunity to grow. Okay job, not a career
