Pros

An all-expenses paid trip to the Caribbean, a healthy amount of unhealthy food during busy season, & an abundance of American Express gift cards. Most importantly, you will make friends that will last you a lifetime.

Cons

The cons of working at Carahsoft sadly outweigh the pros. Yes, you are granted an all-expenses paid trip & plenty of booze, HOWEVER if you were to make an adequate amount for the work that you put in, you'd be able to afford your own trip to a place of your choice, complete with your choice of booze. Carahsoft finds itself in the technology industry, an industry that is constantly changing and growing to meet humanity's needs and demands, yet it is a company that is frozen in time. Management doesn't listen to suggestions on how to improve processes that are no longer effective, they simply continue chugging along as they always have & questioning why they aren't seeing results. Higher-ups value quantity over quality, causing reps to burn out from making an unreasonable number of calls & sending out email campaigns that are 4+ years old. There is no room for change and/or growth when management takes suggestions for improvement as "personal attacks."

Pros

4.5 years working at Carahsoft, I’ve seen and heard it all. Work from home, too many people take this for granted. They promote within! Plenty of opportunity to move up if you work hard and deserve obviously. Work hard, be proactive, take accountability, be reliable, consistent aka do your job and you aren’t micromanaged. If the above is done, they compensate you very nicely. Craig pays 50% of health insurance (not sure if this has changed for new hires) that is unheard of and extremely helpful. Insurance is great, never had any issues. Craig cares and does so much for his employees, way more than I think some people deserve and take for granted. Team Trip, 401k match, Shoe Day, Epic Bar Tab, Reggae Fest, milestone and birthday gift cards, Trophy Bottle, snack boxes, and more.

Cons

They hire kids right out of college with zero work ethic and work experience. They don’t fire people enough, you have a handful of top performers picking up the slack for their colleagues and carrying the team. 60+% of my pay is bonus which makes tax season daunting and stressful.
