Sentinel reviews about "training"

Didn’t know better at the time

3 days on 4 days off

Sentinel is a great company and has made massive changes over the last 3 years. They are investing in people with training, revising platforms, and keep striving to make benefits better and better. Love the people.

Great leadership with long tenure Internal mentoring and training Opportunities to advance or pivot Strong employee support Good expectations on work/family balance Focused on what is good for the customer Deep technical bench Great execution in each technology area- architecture, project services, managed services and consultation

-Industry leading products and services -Great Team -Great environment/culture

Sentinel is on pretty much every list of great places to work - and in the top classification in most. There is a good reason for this. The environment is challenging, it can be highly rewarding to those that are willing to give it a go. Even so, work/life balance is something they strive to provide - but no one at Sentinel is a mind reader, so if you do not communicate any imbalances, well... enough said. The are trying - and succeeding to grow the company and ensure everyone at Sentinel is protected through the pandemic, and that deserves true accolades and shows the family atmosphere that makes up the organization. Ultimately, this is a company that allows you a lot of freedom to perform and grow; you will get out of it what you invest in it. Training is provided through subscriptions with INE, courses, and certification exam offerings as well. All companies have issues, and Sentinel has historically had issues with regional and cross departmental communication and team building. Recently there has been an embrace of WHF and no longer requiring centralization of certain roles that has forced greater collaboration so this is better. This along with the hiring of the Employee Experience Manager has helped turn this around. Another little bit and I think things will be as close to perfect as they can be.

Good people to work with

Their pay scale is generous. You're surrounded by many software engineers so you have the opportunity to really learn from them. Expect there to be minimal training (still not sure if this is a con or a pro as it forces you to get creative and think outside the box (putting this in pro and con)). Although personal experience with senior management was limited, I got the sense that they cared about what they were doing and the engineers below them.
