Pros
The Company has had its pro's and cons. For most of the last two years, the cons have outweighed the pros in a big way. However, despite the best intentions the former CEO and his team could not find a way to really change the downward spiral. This downtrend coupled with a pervasive culture of fear that was overlaid on a top-down lockout on information led to a place that people dreaded to come to work.
Many of the reviews below are accurate, however, while accurate they are also wrong as the company sits today.
Today CompuCom is finding its way back. The New President, Greg Hoogerland is that rare find in the executive office. A smart, analytical business man who not only cares about the people who work for him but also seems to understand that the greatest asset his company has is the people who work for him. In just at two months at the helm, the culture of the company has made a u-turn. Gone is the manage by fear and “they are just lucky they have jobs” totalitarian regime, it has been replaced with an environment where people feel empowered to be part of the solution, where collectively we are driving to find the right solutions to return CompuCom to its former glory.
There is still a lot of damage to fix and fundamentally the business still needs to change to meet the demands of the new digital marketplace we reside in. The difference is that we, the employees of the company now see there is a path forward. We can transform and become a company that not only survives into the future but one that leads the charge and sets the standard for what that future looks like.
Thank you, Greg, you did something that 4 months ago I would have thought imposable. You restored faith in a company many thoughts was a “dead man” walking. There are more hard days ahead but we, your associates, are with you, we have your back and we will succeed together.
If you’re looking for a job, take one at CompuCom. This place is going to be special again and you will want to be part of it.
Cons
The Company is Transforming to be relevant in the modern IT world. While not a con per say it does make challenging as the transformation causes ripples throughout the company. Benefits are poor as well but there is hope that may change.
