Pros

I can't think of anything (no 401K match. PTO is pretty standard. Insurance is not that good).

Cons

People in managerial positions don't know what they are doing. They suck. They have no clue and skill set for the job they are responsible to do. They hired me for a position but then they asked me do something totally different. Bad culture. Bad leadership. People in managerial positions with no competency. Collaboration and communication between team members are not promoted. They only care about billable hours. Typical corrupted small consulting company. Long working hours with no work/life balance.

Pros

- Net at Work is a fantastic company with a great leadership team. It is open, transparent, and has a clear strategic direction. - Big investment in employee programs such as Diversity and inclusion, Program Management, and Internal IT/Software Systems. - Worklife balance

Cons

The health benefits options need to be addressed, as they are lacking. However, HR and Leadership are aware of this.

Pros

Most of the company is great to work with and for. you will meet, and in many cases learn from some of the most professional staff from all across the other practice areas. firmwide culture is very positive. My comments are specific to the practice I am currently part of.

Cons

Director level in our specific practice is disconnected at best with no real world solutions for the challenges they were brought on to solve for. In our case it was all about bringing on large clients without solving for how we scale to properly service them. This resulted in poor morale and a feeling of being always under resourced. With no plan or communication about how to solve for this.

Pros

-Net@Work has great people. Co-workers are super smart, supportive and fun to work with. -There’s a lot of flexibility with work schedule- which is very important to me as I raise my family. So much so that for me, and quite a few others, I was able to relocate out of the New York area and maintain my job- only I began working remotely. -The work is challenging- that’s a pro for me because I am a technical analyst and I thrive on challenges. There’s plenty of opportunity for learning - which is great for me. -Services leadership takes recommendations from teams seriously. Last year the professional services team got quarterly bonuses which was cool. Before, it was annual. -New systems training programs are being implemented -learning the latest technology helps me stay ahead of my clients -Co-founders give interactive quarterly updates. It’s great to hear about what’s going on around the company.

Cons

-Flexibility is a pro but its also a con. I often end up working longer hours than I plan -You need lots of patience and diligence to be successful -Benefits are average – could be better

Pros

I started working at Net@Work two months ago. I was hired as the new Chief Human Resources Officer to improve the overall effectiveness of the HR department. This includes providing expected, consistent and valuable programs and services to our employees, partnering with our management team to help them and their teams do what they do better in order to grow their businesses, and enhancing the employee experience and our culture. The previous HR team was unsuccessful in these areas. I accepted the offer to work here as a direct result of the company’s two Owners’ expression of caring, loyalty and passionate commitment to the employees to do right by them and continuously advance. I report directly to both Owners and am so excited that they have already empowered me to build a new team as well as make immediate recommendations for improvements in all areas of HR and Recruiting, some of which I have already started to implement. I recently attended our annual Leadership retreat in which I had the opportunity to meet our management team comprised of approximately 40 Managers, Directors and Vice Presidents (who are regularly based at various locations throughout North America) and found them to be super-smart, genuine, creative and welcoming. One of the Owners hosted this event at his home for all 40 of us. (yes, really!). The agenda was filled with business updates, recognition of accomplishments as well as fun social and team-building events. This was so valuable to me in terms of getting to know the team both personally and professionally. The business operates at a very fast pace and you definitely need to be resourceful, disciplined, self-motivated and have the ability to develop relationships quickly in order to be effective in your role and make an impact. There is a focus on hiring as well as building “A” Players who are high performers. This this creates enormous opportunities for those who embrace the challenge. Net@Work is extremely stable and focused on rapid growth both organically and through acquisitions. The acquisitions are particularly exciting to me as I can already see how we benefit from gaining new talent, fresh perspectives and multi-faceted industry expertise while having the opportunity to diversify our teams and blend different cultures together. While I have been getting to know all of our office-based and remote employees, I have been impressed by the connection our teams share and the level of collaboration they achieve despite not all working in the same physical location. People care about each other here, communicate frequently and go out of their way to help make each other successful. Updated technology and tools are plentiful and there are several initiatives in progress to identify and introduce improved systems to simplify processes and improve automation. So far my experience has been positive and I am excited to turn the vision for my position into a reality and work with this talented group of people!

Cons

Many employees don’t realize how deeply the Owners and the senior team care about our people. They are committed to building a culture where employees love what they do, have fun while they are doing it and get to reap the rewards of being wildly successful! I believe this is a factor of our rapid growth in recent years and our fast-paced business. It will be a priority for me to identify opportunities for employees at all levels to get more exposure to them so they can see and experience this for themselves.

Pros

Describing "pro's" is very complex. You may have a good manager or a good coworker. I do not know of any coaching to fill out "fake" reviews. The reviews at Glassdoor are real, don't think all of those people are wrong, they can't all be pissed off for no reason.

Cons

There is absolutely nothing that makes this a "choice" employer so the pluses are so few that this review will seem vindictive which is not the case, I will describe the situation as it is, and you decide. When I interviewed it was already kind of sketchy with offers taking up to two or three weeks after an agreement has been reached. Applicant treatment is very poor. It seems as though Net at Work is household name and it's not. The reviews here gave me pause, and I should have listened. You will be a one-legged duck here, no education, no training, and most of all beyond any reasonable doubt no-one has your back. Going to HR (well you just expedited your departure), they will crush you for speaking up. Loyalty and urgency are not valued. If you value feedback, growth, or loyalty for a job well done. forget it. Work Environment: Seems to very high pressure, hiring of new managers and other leaders seems forced, and more about people who know each other in leadership positions, they hire the same profile even if they fired the guy before for the same reason. Verbal abuse is alive and flourishing here. Good people have come and gone because they allowed it. Leadership: There is absolutely not one person looking out for you. ZERO Loyalty to employee's and the benefits are so bad that you will need to seek out alternatives. This insurance is an insult to the word insurance and VERY expensive with huge deductibles, co-pays on everything, and limits on medication that is covered. Growth is no ones priority. Just do your job, and don't worry about the rest. BDRs, CSM, and other jobs will promise advancement but really it is completely false. Net at Work took on investment capital and you can see the end of the Net at Work coming. No more family, no more small, versatile culture. Everything in this company takes twice as long and you should not have to worry because no one cares. Finally, working here is like having no one care at all. You will be fine if you can just sit there otherwise, employee loyalty is completely dead here. New managers are on a power trips thinking that a business unit or business as a whole supports their very poor communication. Evaluations are dead. Feedback is dead. There is absolutely nothing about this company that makes it better than others. The reviews here (we all read them and thing oh that person was disgruntled) these guys came by honestly, I would read it, and unless their are significant changes, walk, no just pass.
