Pros

Benefits are alright. Yearly raise based on performance review. Easy to navigate employee tools.

Cons

Upper management seems to believe our roles are solely facilities maintenance. They pay accordingly. However when the contract is facilities maintenance, but you’re performing critical work and switching in line with a data center contract, the compensation should reflect. They’re expecting you to put on a Class 4 Arc Flash/Blast PPE (40 cal) while refusing to compensate fairly for the increased risk to life and limb. Upper management has no idea what actually goes on. No wonder the turnover rate is so high. All good talent leaves to other data centers that offer much higher compensation with garunteed career pipelines to critical facility engineer.

Pros

Remote work, yeatly raise, holiday pay

Cons

They micromanage. I realize we're remote but pretty much everything they do makes you feel like someone is watching you. They always ask if you have questions but my sup gaslights and blows me off. They try extremely hard to penalize you but mgmt can say or do anything they want and then when you bring it up they say 'no that didn't happen' or 'no we didn't say that.' Also as a csr we have rude clients daily with no self control or phone manners but we are expected to be perfect.
