Pros

Great place to get your foot in the door, but make sure it doesn't get stuck in there, unless an apprentice / entry level pay check are all you ever dreamed of. "Working" staff are very competent and a great group of people to work with. Free pizza lunch once in a blue moon.

Cons

LOW wages, no merit / raise increases, no more performance bonus program, no overtime. Insurance will be next to nothing by next year. They keep adding responsibilities to employees work load, with out considering a promotion or raise. Imagine having a 20+ year career in IT, and making less than $18.00 an hour, with nope hope of a raise or promotion!! *** I could put a bow on it, but the place would still be a pile of crap!!***

Pros

Many CompuCom employees work in a virtual team environment, far removed from direct management and colleagues. This could be a good or bad thing depending upon how you look at it. Personally, I find it to be a good thing as it allows me to work (most of the time) with very little micro managing. I also have more flexibility in my schedule as a result: my manager is not as acutely aware of when I may take a little bit longer lunch or take an early lunch to make a doc appt, etc.

Cons

Number one: cheap, cheap, cheap!!! I've worked in this industry for a long time and in several different environments. Never have I worked for an employer with such Scrooge-like tendencies. I was absolutely shocked to discover what we pay some of our people - as low as $11/hour for a position that requires 3-5 years of good higher-level technical support experience! Some CompuCom managers bring new hires on with a 3 month temp to perm probationary period. At the end of those 3 months, they do not increase the employee's wages after they are hired on full time with CompuCom. Instead, they tell the new employee that the offer of health/dental benefits constitutes a "raise." I also want to add that the team I work with has a very high turnover rate which has resulted in some pretty shabby service to the customer. There's also absolutely no room to grow. CompuCom is contracted to provide specific IT services to its customers and hires people to exactly fill those requirements. Unless the service contracts change, CompuCom employees are locked into an extremely inflexible job description. What's more, if they attempt to work outside of that description at all, CompuCom management will crack down hard on the employee. They really don't want the customer to receive ANY service that they did not pay for. When they do charge extra for special projects, the employee sees no bump in salary unless he/she works OT while the project is ongoing.

Pros

hhhhmmmmm..... there used to be pro's a few years ago.

Cons

New office HQ in Fort Mill is a joke. Terrible phone reception and meetings drop on regular basis due to connectivity issues. Management turnover has been way too frequent. Current and former leadership had clicks that built walls and barriers between teams that are not easy to tear down. Office Depot is really at a complete loss of how to allow CompuCom if you ever watch at town hall with the CEO - wow! He is a complete idiot that has their Boca employees cheer when there is absolutely nothing to cheer about. He reminds me of a televangelist. No one believes or trust the BS this guy dishes out and the stock market price confirms it. Product - CompuCom has no products to offer other than service desk and managed services and US jobs are ALL on the line to be shipped offshore. This is a MAJOR initiative. Benefits are TERRIBLE!!!! Don't be fooled - they offer insurance but it's pricey and the deductibles are a joke.
