Pros

team environment, helpful managers, flexible leave, remote work, health insurance

Cons

low pay, menial & tedious work, large workload, inconsistent policies & procedures, mass layoffs/slow to re-hire, system enhancements are slow to be implemented, lack of a centralized location for pertinent info, lots of digging through old emails to "research", dumb processes & rules that make your job even more tedious What this company does is start laying off people out of the blue, then moving the fired employee’s responsibilities onto the ones that are left. Then as business starts to increase, they continue to spread more duties to the existing employees on a team, but don’t want to pay them extra. The same low pay rate for much more work. They discourage overtime. They would rather burden and overwhelm the existing employees, including management, rather than to hire/pay a new employee. They prefer to have contractors or hourly-pay workers than permanent, salaried employees. If you want to work here, don’t let them make demands on your time outside of work hours…because they will if you let them. Supplier sales reps intimidate customers into orders they do not want and harass them until the order has shipped. It's a very strange dynamic to be in the middle of. Considering the company (Avnet, now TechData) brings in hundreds of millions of dollars in sales from each supplier (and they have multiple suppliers), yet income is near the poverty level, is disheartening.
