Pros

If you're a young, twenty-something that likes to drink and truly embody the work-hard, play-hard mentality, it's not the worst place to work. Good experience cold-calling and builds character (you'll deal with lots of rejection). If you get to go to the annual sales meeting, you can go to some pretty cool places on the company's dollar.

Cons

Expectation is a 50 hour minimum work-week. Be prepared for micro-managing, cold-calling, feeling like a used-car salesman, and constantly feeling beat-down. Even when I hit 10k in spread, it did't feel like it was "good enough." Constant fear of waiting for the "other shoe to drop" and for your spread to fall off (i.e. your commission pay-outs). Stressful, turn-and-burn environment. Not a niche company industry so you're not only competing internally, but with every other firm in town. VERY saturated market. Not a company I felt proud working out.

Pros

Colleagues are wonderful. Depending on your position, you get to expense meals as relationship building.

Cons

Terrible work life balance. TEK grossly underpays its employees and demands a lot from them. Workload does not match the compensation and expectations are very high. Management dismissed your concerns when you bring up an unreasonably high workload. Expectation is that you work outside of work hours constantly, even though management tells you that isn’t the expectation. Benefits are atrocious. There is no flexibility. No matching 401K contributions. They don’t offer most holidays other companies do. They promote not based on leadership qualities, but instead on who they like and are friends with. Minorities don’t ever seem to advance in the company and many end up leaving. Culture can be incredibly exhausting. They want to know all about your personal life. Their goal is to at least make you cry once as you share the trauma of your childhood, even if you don’t have any. Many meetings are focused on that instead of the technical work. Field offices are treated better than corporate. Corporate is told they can’t have certain things because the field offices will take offense. Corporate is essentially a glorified secretary for the field offices. You do as they command, particularly in OSG.

It’s a joke!

Pros

For those fresh out of college this would seem like the ideal place to work. A lot of alcohol, loud music in the office, and free food. With livable wage.

Cons

God forbid you have a family and don’t have time to throw back shots with your higher ups - you will be outcasted almost instantly. If the work hours are 8-6, why do you look at your employees that leave at 6:30 with disgust. Oh and if you use any of your pto- you will be judged. Why give PTO if you’re going to judge people for using it! This is the most non-family friendly company I have ever worked for! It’s a office full of favorites and suck ups who seem to be the only ones who succeed (ironic?) , and if you don’t follow in their footsteps you will not get any leads or support!
