      Pros

      Sentinel overall is a very strong company leading the technology conversation across the nation. I work in Grand Rapids, one of the three Michigan locations. If you want to be part of a great organization that invests in you, promotes from within and has great pay and benefits; Sentinel has all of that. In addition the leadership and culture in Grand Rapids is second to none.

      Cons

      There is rapid growth here. Always new events and challenges. If you don't like a challenge this may not be the place for you. Sharing of ideas and constant feedback are encouraged. If you like to keep your head down and keep to yourself; this may not be the place for you.

      Pros

      An excellent company culture. Everyone treats you like you’re part of the family even when you’re new to the team. All levels of management are always involved and genuinely care about the team, their efforts, concerns, and well-being. People are involved in each other’s day to day lives and are friendly with all. Wonderful vibes here. Whether you’re the president, or a new hire, everyone’s insight and opinions are valued and respected. I look forward to coming to work and utilizing my skill set to help grow the brand. Good starting pay with room to grow. Great work ethic. Great company. Great people to work with. Great work/life balance. Something I was looking for when coming from my prior position. It’s a rather large organization that still treats you with the care and concern that a small family owned business would. I’m glad to be here.

      Cons

      No issues as of now and don’t expect to deal with any in the foreseeable future.

      Pros

      Talented engineers, industry standard pay, money for certifications but only when there is an immediate benefit for the company

      Cons

      Lack of integrity with both customers and employees. Very CYA, and blame is assigned to engineers for management mistakes. High turnover rate by very smart engineers who are tired of being micromanaged, overworked, and treated as disposable by incompetent executives, HR, and project managers. Don't just take my word for it, take a look at the negative reviews, everyone is saying the same things, yet HR refutes them each time. 90% of the positive reviews are fake and/or posted by current employees. Yet the company markets hard on its public image and "awards". Company is old school. Managers value engineers being at their desk 40+ hours and punching the clock over getting results, working less hours, working remotely etc. Vacation time is extremely frowned upon. Two types of managers exist, those who know nothing about how technology works, even on a very basic level, and the other are very senior engineers who know nothing about people skills, or how to work as a team. I would not recommend taking a job here. The upper management is so out of touch with technology it's truly amazing the company is still in business in 2019, but it's propped up by an incredible sales team. Definite concerns for the future of the company.
