Pros

I keep seeing reviews that management doesn't care at Tech Data. So I had to speak up. I received a phone call that my son had fallen off 2-story building with a seizure and Bayfront was transporting him via helicopter. Of course, I thought the worse and starting crying quite loudly. I frantically packed up to go, where I did not even know, but the CIO, John Tonnison, known as jt heard the commotion and stopped me from no doubt recklessly driving to find out if my son was dead or alive. Not only did he stop me, he drove me. He could have just dropped me off as I was misinformed of the hospital location and went from St. Pete to Largo and he had WAY MORE IMPORTANT items to take care of, but that is not how he saw it. He even came in as support in case the results were worse than I had heard. He had to call to postpone a meeting even with the CEO, Bob Dutkowsky, but you know; he felt what jt was doing was more important than their meeting as he too is all about the employees. This is a management team that REALLY cares!

Cons

This place has way too many pros to even consider a con.

Pros

the people are nice and you get free food sometimes. Just don't eat too many donuts.

Cons

They lock you into sales for 18 months even if you have skills in other areas. Then they wonder why people leave. They pay extremely below national average. They promote people who are good ole boys. They love hiring young people with trust funds that can afford to work there. They just cut bonuses for people because they were doing well to ensure they do not make as much money, even though it was helping the company.

Pros

Your colleagues make the job tolerable. Free food as vendors are always sponsoring lunch and learns & snack a sells. Free gifts are given from time to time

Cons

Where do I begin... POOR MANAGEMENT, they do not know how to talk to there employees. They(Some) are very condescending and disrespectful and when you do speak your mind or try and stand up for yourself you are shunned. The managers are clueless and have no idea what they're doing. They have processes that are counterintuitive to your success. If you are an ASR, you will never get credit for the success of the team. It will always go to the SAR and your hard work will always be overlooked by management. But the moment the team starts to slip in terms of numbers, it is all your fault. Politics plays a huge role in this company. Even if you're a great employee, if they don't like you, you will not get ahead. Which leads me to my next point, no room for growth.
