Business Outlook

Pros

Employee Purchase benefits are good, Benefits are ok, people are hard working and dedicated and knowledgeable.

Cons

Horrible Ticketing System - ASTEA sucks! Micro Managed by Managers, Pays below Market Average $15.00 / hr + Sales Commission. People who work this position will leave for greener pastures. Helping Retail Customers is not a thankful job and Onboarding and Training is horrible.
