Pros

Some cool co-workers, that's it.

Cons

This is my second job out of college, I've been here three months and I wouldn't recommend this job to anyone. Majority of new hires are fresh out of school and simply don't realize that this isn't how most companies in the real world operate. This job will be expected to be your life, if you need to go to a Doctor's Appointment or take a sick day your managers will scorn you. "Benefits" are basically non-existent. They don't have an HR department which is how they get away with running the company like a glorified sweatshop. Managers are fake nice and expect you to be robots. They don't care about you, they only care about hitting their numbers and making their top executives more money. It doesn't matter how good you are at your job, there is ZERO commission. Don't believe the 4 and 5 star reviews, they are fake. Seriously only consider working here if you don't have any other options.

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.
