Pros

None. No one likes being abused and exhausted.

Cons

The management of Smartek21 is full of problematic managers, and they are the reason for the horrible work environment and culture of this company. Most of the managers are close-minded and never listen to the employees. They are also verbally abusive most of the time, and the best thing to do is just avoid or ignore them.

Smartek21 Response

We appreciate your comments around your experience with SmarTek21. Your feedback around problematic managers will be forwarded to the Executive Management/HR to see how we may be able to make improvements with our management. Thank you for your service - we wish you well in your future endeavors.
