Pros

The best thing about working at Pomeroy is the people. Also has fairly generous vacation time offerings.

Cons

1.) The health insurance is effectively the bare minimum required by law. It is catastrophic insurance. If you are a healthy person that has a few issues per year (flu vaccine typically focuses on one of the multiple strains each year), be prepared to wonder why you pay your high premiums, as you have to pay for 100% of your doctor's visits and prescriptions until the deductible is met. Recommend using the HSA benefit. 2.) The pay is not competitive from a market standpoint. This is able to be verified via Glassdoor or other sites like Salary.com. I have personal insight that client's of Pomeroy offer starting assembly technicians (hired straight out of high school) a higher wage than Pomeroy hires in service technicians (which require professional certifications). 3.) No education reimbursement or upfront payment. Need your A+ certification, foot the bill! 4.) Additional training is often times few and far between, limited in scope, and not always geared towards your growth. 5.) Even if you are provided with an opportunity for training, your workload tends to be so off-balanced that you will either suffer after the training is over while you catch up, or you will have to use your personal time to participate in the training. The idea of "work/life balance" is a pipe dream. 6.) Vacation is fairly generous, but honestly almost becomes a punishment due to unbalanced workload. Personal experience is often that a few days become "work-ation" days. 7.) Hourly employees tend to receive a workload that cannot fit in 40 hours, yet are told that no overtime is permitted. This tends to breed a culture of involuntary volunteerism, meaning the work somehow gets done, yet the time card says 40 hours. 8.) Relocation assistance is only offered to either director level or higher...if you are working towards moving into leadership from a lower level, you are presented with an opportunity that you are most likely going to be unable to afford to take. 9.) Cost of living changes is very inaccurate. 10.) Lack of additional performance incentives (i.e. bonuses, etc.). 11.) Performance evaluations are extremely subjective, instead of based on quantitative and qualitative performance.

Pros

Pomeroy has proven a place to develop a career for those who are ambitious, value autonomy, and take initiative to make a difference.

Cons

Pomeroy is a fast paced environment and moves quickly - some may find this decisiveness and desire for change not for them.

Pros

The people are truly the best part of working at Pomeroy. I had the opportunity to work with some amazing coworkers and leaders who genuinely care about one another. The work-life balance is also a real positive, especially compared to many companies in the industry. It’s also telling that many employees have long tenure, and it’s not uncommon to see people leave and eventually come back, which says a lot about the culture and the relationships people build there.

Cons

One of the biggest frustrations is that there have been a lot of promises made over the years that never seem to materialize. A 401(k) company match has been discussed for well over four years, but it still hasn’t been implemented. Leadership has also communicated plans for company-wide merit increases, yet there hasn’t been an across-the-board increase since 2023.
