Jim Simpson
Former Employee – worked at MSI Systems Integrators full-time for more than 10 years
Pros – MSI was an excellent company to work for before Sirius Computer Solutions acquired them in 2010. They often had family events, so I was able to bring my son along to have some fun.
Cons – I had been in my last position for several years and not able to move around in the company as I would have liked. MSI had such an honored position in our industry so when we got the news we were going to be acquired, instead of the other way around, it was shocking news. The acquisition effectively killed MSI. Instead of enhancing the services we offered, Sirius snubbed all efforts to help them improve their back office systems and services until it eliminated every trace of MSI.
Advice to Senior Management – Moral of the story to MSI execs: don't get out of debt by taking such drastic measures as erasing what was built in 16 years.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company

Current Employee – been working at MSI Systems Integrators
Pros – Company has a family oriented atmosphere and promotes a customer first attitude, which leads to excellent customer loyalty and relationships. Some of the most talented people in the business work at MSI.
Cons – Sometimes difficult to balance work and personal priorities, as MSI is an intense place to work; sometimes to much focus on number and measurements
Advice to Senior Management – Don't lose the family oriented atmosphere, and continue to treat employees well. Don't sell out to big company culture and associated values.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Former Employee – worked at MSI Systems Integrators
Pros – The local talent is tremendous. Engineers are top notch and very knowledgeable.
Cons – Management is all located in Omaha. Outside of home base there is very little integration with executives.
Advice to Senior Management – Management should be distributed among all sites more evenly. Promotions from within should occur more often.

Advice to Senior Management – I believe that the management team is extremely good here at MSI. They are quick to offer praise and also quick to offer corrective guidance.

Pros – This is a great place to work. You will feel important to MSI and the work that they do. Very family oriented. If your looking for a place to stick around a while, this is it.
Cons – It is a smaller company so the pay is not as high as it would be in larger companies. But this can be offset by the very acceptable benefits that the company offers.
Advice to Senior Management – Keep doing what you are doing. The leadership style that I have seen managers use is effectively keeping their employees motivated to work for MSI and do it with passion.
