CTS (Computer Technology Solutions) reviews

Learning positive, friendly atmosphere, creative and energetic - The opportunity to learn many different technologies. Great management staff. Fun company.

Computer Technology Solutions (CTS) is an IT consulting firm with six regional offices. I work in the Charlotte office. Our office is right in the heart of uptown Charlotte (literally at Trade and Tryon) which offers a great view from our office on the 21st floor and there are a lot of really great lunch options close by. Parking in uptown Charlotte can be expensive, however CTS offers a parking allowance that is currently the same price as the cost to park in a parking lot that is only 2-3 blocks from our building, which I find to be fair. When I was looking for the next move in my career I chose an IT consulting firm because I believed I would gain exposure to many different problems from many different industries. I chose CTS as an employer because I believed in the training and certification programs, mentoring opportunities, and the benefits were definitely some of the best I have seen. I am confident in the career opportunities at CTS because the company seems to be organic. By that I mean most of the senior staff have been promoted from within. I have seen internal postings for management positions before they are posted externally. Also, the goals for promotion are clearly stated for each position. Since arriving, I have been able to work on a project for a client and have worked closely with our Senior Software Architect. I have gained experience in areas such as data consolidation and migration, application integration, and software development. I have been allowed time to gain knowledge in new areas and time to gain exposure to new technologies. We have weekly knowledge sharing sessions where experienced staff share their knowledge and experience.We also have weekly team meetings where the entire staff are presented with how our company is doing and how business is going for our office. We have monthly fun team events like going to the Whitewater Center to go kayaking, laser tag, and other activities that our team enjoys. The office atmosphere is great and everyone in our office gets along very well. I seriously enjoy coming to work every day!
