SHI International Reviews

Pros

good training, lower than expected turnover for a sales company. Had some great managers who really made the job worth it.

Cons

your experience at the company will vary depending on your manager. Lack of visibility into upper managments plans, having to make important career decision with minimal time to consider.

Pros

I've made some of my best friends of my life at this company. The culture is second-to-none. The CEO believes in long-term success vs short-term answers, and has built a management team around her that mirrors that mentality. Being a VAR in the IT industry means you adapt quickly to the market, which is why SHI has always experienced growth. I would highly recommend the company to anyone and would gladly go back to work there if the right position were presented to me.

Cons

Things are always shifting around, usually for the better, but you have to anticipate that and don't get too comfortable.

Pros

I think shi has been a great opportunity to grow professionally. Culture is great for a sales organization. People are helpful and the organization strives to win together.

Cons

With a young sales force there is some degree of micromanaging, but it’s not too bad. Base salary is a tad low.

Pros

Incredible CEO and GM. Pay is uncapped. Lots of learning and training. You can go from knowing absolutely nothing about IT, to eventually becoming a specialist, technical advisor, engineer, business development manager, channel account manager, etc. There is a huge community of people to support you if ever needed (countless Go Fund Me's over the years). Wins are celebrated. It is easy to meet people and make friends. You get the chance to network within the IT industry.

Cons

Inconsistent leadership and asks. The focus shifts on a weekly or monthly basis. It is very political. Management sells our time to partners, and it results in them trying to take control of our calendars; this distracts from the actual job and tasks at hand. The comp structure has changed multiple times, and quotas always seem too high or difficult to attain. There is INFORMATION OVERLOAD, and it seems few people in management have bothered taking classes in psychology or emotional/mental health. The job is extremely stressful and they would prefer you to be about quantity over quality. I'm exhausted.

Pros

Laptop, perks such as free food, and young co-workers

Cons

Gossip central in the contracts department and low pay
