Pros

Benefits - Sweetwater is an extremely known name in the area, and anywhere an appointment is needed they will know Campus is genuinely very good. Hot food for lunch, Gym, access to the store. The people that this place attracts are by far the best part, some of the most interesting, talented, kind people I've met.

Cons

Product support is continually forgotten by management while being an essential part of customer retention as well as the marketing materials. Underpaid for the amount of customer interaction, trade knowledge, and speed in their arcane management software.

Pros

The campus is nice, amenities on point, and the overall vibe is real positive. Makes coming to work an enjoyable experience. The overall culture is professional, supportive, and positive — people generally care about the work and about each other. It’s an environment where collaboration and growth are encouraged, and the corporate values are strong.

Cons

Some roles don’t get paid what they're worth, straight up. Additionally, while the company’s mission and culture are outstanding, not every individual manager fully reflects those values in practice. Most do, but a few fall short. Some of the bravado so often celebrated in corporate circles makes them impressive on first glance but their EI is lacking.
