Eh

Installation technician

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Pay, PTO, Benefits. Pay is good although there is absolutely no room for growth and benefits are very competitive

Cons

Upper management is absolutely clueless and refuses to acknowledge anything other than ways to charge the customer more for less. For a communications company, there is ZERO communication within the company. Technicians are constantly expected to do other departments work and it is 100% a “do as I say, not as I do” work environment.

Decent Pay, Stodgy Management

Financial accountant

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Decent Pay. Good Benefits. 401(k) with above average employer contribution.

Cons

Stodgy management. Resistant to to change. Absolutely detests initiative. Still clinging to an accounting platform from the 1970s (!).
