Pros

- Work schedule allows for some day-to-day flexibility - Field engineers maintain a culture of mutual support, helping each other with any questions or problems - Get to work hands on with powerful & expensive technology - Multiple levels of corporate walls shield you from upset customers

Cons

-TSP operates like a glorified recruiting company, middlemanning service contracts with major customers and hiring underqualified candidates in order to pay them minimally. -Insultingly low compensation, while management insensibly boasts about profits and the success of the company -Raises are unheard of - you may even be laughed at for suggesting a pay increase. -Expectations for 24/7 on call - if you want to be away from your phone or email, be prepared to request PTO and hope someone is willing to cover you -Management and executives are disconnected from frontline employees and will readily dismiss employee grievances. It becomes quickly clear that you are expendable and management has no qualms about losing you. - Benefits aren't particularly great, high deductibles - Not much in the way of career mobility - there are only a few narrow technical roles available to you unless you want to try to maneuver into a management position

Thanks for taking the time to provide us and the Glassdoor community at large your thoughts on the time you spent with us. We don’t like to sound like a broken record, but you make a great point — our product is our people. We take great pride in valuing top technical expertise and we only hire the best and brightest, putting our clients first by hiring the best people to ensure things get done right. Our engineers are vetted professionals with talent, insight, and innovation in their specific fields. And yes, our work model tries to afford as much flexibility as possible to all of our employees — we hear that positive feedback on a regular basis and we’re proud that we’re able to offer that. I wouldn’t go so far as to refer to us as “glorified” — but we absolutely are a staffing company. In fact, our Amplify Solution is one of our two business arms. We almost exclusively hire all employees as full-time W2 resources to fill our customers’ recruiting and staffing needs. This focus on the employee experience provides a greater sense of security for our employees, which in turn ensures that our turnover rate stays low and allows our employees to form trusted partnerships with our customers. We hear you about being on-call. However, our recruiters are always straightforward and transparent with any and all aspects of every job we fill. If a position requires an amount of time for any employee to be on-call, they agree to that before a job offer is ever accepted. With that said, we try our hardest to ensure all of our employees have the flexibility they need to keep a solid work/life balance. You raise a valid point. We try our absolute best to be as competitive as possible with our pay and compensation, but there are some instances in which pay is dictated by client bill rates, and in those circumstances we make every honest effort to ensure rates are reviewed every renewal cycle. We try our hardest to advocate for the best possible solution for both employee and client. On the other hand, there are a number of other aspects that our employees love — our benefits are among the best in the marketplace, our 401K program, our Seeds to Leads program, our free training and certifications via Rockstar U, and especially the flexibility — like you’d mentioned earlier. We conduct extensive market research constantly to ensure the compensation offered is as good as it possibly can be — if it wasn't, we'd constantly be losing out on the best employees, but we're not — there's a reason that we're considered by some of our clients as being the best kept secret in the IT space. Furthermore, to counter any pay discrepancies, several years ago we put into place a system to notify our management team of an employee who has not had a pay increase in the previous year. We always strongly encourage our employees to have constant and open communications with their managers — if any employee feels they’re deserving of a merit increase, we always recommend they have that conversation with their manager. We wish you the best of luck in whatever you choose to continue on with.

Thanks for taking the time to provide us, and the Glassdoor community at large your concise feedback of your time spent with us. When we receive negative feedback, we don’t dismiss it — to us, it’s constructive criticism, we look for growth in opportunities like this. Every company can and should be working on diversity and inclusion initiatives. We all have to do more. As a certified minority-owned business, TSP believes that our employees' diverse backgrounds and viewpoints make us stronger. The best and the brightest work with us, and we strive for every employee to have a sense of belonging. Our vision statement ends with the line, “…honoring their employees and investing time and money in the communities where they live, work and play.” These aren't just words on posters or on our website. As an organization, we are committed to working on what the company and our employees should do to be a better ally to the minority community. We are so proud to recently be included in Texas Black Careers’ Top 10 Most Diverse Companies To Work For In Dallas, TX list — in fact, we ranked number one on this list of prestigious and diverse Dallas employers. We also regularly support, both monetarily and with our time, nonprofits like Readers 2 Leaders (R2L) who develop and grow the reading skills of underserved Dallas children ages 3-12 so that they succeed in school and graduate prepared to live productive lives. R2L has been building its library of books featuring people of color being in the world, in addition to being featured in historical contexts. This past Juneteenth, TSP bought every library book they requested and donated it to their library. These two examples aren't simply accomplishments for TSP to hang its hat on, it’s symbolic of an ever-expanding perspective on how we, as a company, can better the communities where we live, work and play. We wish you luck and personal growth in your future endeavors.
