Pros

not much since the demise of fully paid health insurance premiums.

Cons

the ONLY thing that set this company apart from all other copier companies, "was" fully paid health insurance premiums.

Pros

Sales Training is great for someone inexperienced right out of college. Selling the highest end copiers, printers, and print management software. Name known in the area.

Cons

The work itself is not the issue. Long hours (7a-7p) sure, but the sales team culture here (as many have noted) is embarrassing. For example 1) constant forced happy hours regardless of person or family obligations 2) public humiliation in front of peers by management for performance not meeting expectations 3) Time off / Vacation was non-existent in the 3 years I worked there for all sales account reps and mgrs (only LT sales employees could take time off without shaming)

Pacific Office Automation Response

We appreciate the feedback and its paramount to our continual effort in employee happiness. We’re sorry that you felt your time with us was not as valuable as it could have been, but thank you for your transparent review!

Pros

Pacific Office is a great place to grow. The lack of structure throughout the company provides easy access to promotions and other growth opportunities.

Cons

They focus too much on sales. The rest of the company is disposable so not a lot of effort is put into keeping employees happy. The sales people are allowed to act like children and treat others poorly. Pay is generally below market rate and not a lot is done to incentivize employees to stay long term. POA acts as a great stepping stone for a first job but that means that everyone that works there is unexperienced and immature.

Pacific Office Automation Response

Thank you for leaving a review. We’re disappointed you feel that we don’t put in effort to keep all employees happy and incentivize them to stay long-term. Through continued education, mentorship opportunities, and team-building activities, we’re proud that many of our employees across all departments have grown their careers with POA over the last several years. We appreciate your time with us and wish you the best.
