Black Box Response

I am disappointed you did not have a good work experience with Black Box. I am always available for direct feedback in regard to improvements to the workplace and business. We have an open door policy and frequently do "skip level" sessions to get direct feedback from team members to make improvements. I am not sure that I would agree with the comment that "Executives at the top take care of themselves." As the HR leader for the business, we strive to ensure that all team members are treated fairly. Everyone, even Executives, have the same compensation and benefit programs that we have for everyone else. If team members do not receive bonuses, leaders to not receive bonuses. Everyone on the team contributes to our success. We have had a lot of change at Black Box over the two years I have been here. It is now a fast paced organization that focuses on excellence, rewards on merit & contribution, and values diversity in team members. Thanks, David M. Pasternak, Vice President of Human Resources

Pros

There genuinely are a lot of great people working here but they are often lower level employees. Great work-life balance and flexibility (for the most part..) Solid benefits package(health insurance, PTO, etc)

Cons

Communication with management is very poor. They hardly consider the opinions of the “worker bees.” Compensation and incentives slowly eroded while you continue to take on more work. “Feathers in your cap” does not count as compensation. Very little, if any, commission. Far too aggressive targets for the resources available. Extreme offshoring of existing positions leading to everyone feeling like they have a gun pointed to their head. Executives hardly have any idea what their organization even looks like on a day to day basis. “Visionary” executives don’t cut it. Most importantly: non-existent path for career development and growth. Taken advantage of, especially in this role. Major conflicts of interests with AM’s and management surrounding growing out of the SSE position.
