Pros

- Cafeteria on site wasn't terrible, lunch places around there weren't bad. - Very difficult to get fired, short of actual incompetence - Vendor sponsored stuff was nice. - Paycheck always came on time.

Cons

The pay was awful, making about 75 percent of industry standard for similar work, I had firends working in other NOCs making significantly more than me and my peers to start. Inflexible starting pay even to technicians that had certifications and significant experience (you made $15 an hour to start, and after 90 days you get a 10 percent bump). The job feels meaningless and doing a good job often went unnoticed. The description says "promotes from within"; though in a year I only saw one tech promoted to engineer, the rest were outside hires. Benefits package had one very high deductible health benefit. All the office rules were written for 9-5ers, with no thought considered for those that had non-traditional working schedules. NOC had a points based attendance system that was not enforced even on members of the same group (Service Desk/NOC). Very low pay led to very talented techs leaving for better positions, while Insight wouldn't even consider trying to match. It led to essentially a revolving door. Management was inconsistent, and often hadcrossed wires in communication. Managers from other groups were constantly in the NOC telling people what to do, even if it wasn't their responsibility.

Pros

Good location since it is based in Tempe Take your dog to work day, annual holiday party and that is about it.

Cons

Poor benefits compared to other organizations. Horrible and unethical sales leadership. You tell HR but they really don't investigate because of their personal relationships with the leadership team members.

We enjoy Bring Your Dog to Work Day and our other events too. Regarding our medical benefits, have a Health Savings Account that Insight contributes to plus an on-site health center in Arizona and many new enhanced features this year like extra coverage for life's incidentals. Regarding HR not looking into issues, our team is very diligent, however, if you can share with us any specifics, we'd look into this for you. Email us at glassdoorfeedback@insight.com.

Pros

Benefits is really the only highlight I can honestly say, with them exception of how some employees (non management) will go out of their way to help.

Cons

Doesn't Recommend Neutral Outlook No opinion of CEO I worked at Insight full-time (More than 5 years) Pros Benefits is really the only highlight I can honestly say, with them exception of how some employees (non management) will go out of their way to help. Cons I worked their for years and although the company has great potential, they don't practice what they preach. I've seen countless employees leave due to bullying/belittling (which leads to the fear of retribution), or employees dismissed because they don't tow the line as expected (i.e.: put up or shut up). I left on my own terms and was viewed in a high regard.
