Pros

-Good work life balance. You'll be expected to put in honest work and do a good job, but working late and on weekends wasn't common. -Average health benefits

Cons

-Pay isn't very competitive -Nepotism nepotism nepotism. Hiring decision are based on who you grew up with, not your qualifications. -There aren't great career advancement paths. It was easier to leave the company to advance my career. -Middle Management isn't well trained on employee development -Large internal push to get on Fortune and Glassdoor Best Places to Work. I don't feel that their rankings accurately reflect what it's like to work there.

Thanks for the feedback and I'm sorry you left. I may be biased but I think our health benefits are among the best that any employers offer. We do hire a large number of employee referrals but this only helps someone get hired, it doesn't keep them hired. Everyone must perform to be successful. We are very honored to receive acknowledgment on being a great place to work and we do celebrate this. It's our employees who make this possible. Thanks again and good luck.

Pros

World Wide Technology has the best culture I have ever experienced. Supervisors are invested in developing future leaders and subject matter experts that perpetuate the success of the company and that begins by creating a positive atmosphere where all types of people and thought are accepted. I am proud to say I am a family member at WWT and I take every opportunity to brag on what a great place it is to work.

Cons

The company is growing at an accelerated rate and sometimes experiences the growing pains of such success.
