    Great job, terrible company!

    May 22, 2023 - Field Engineer II in Phoenix, AZ
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    The customers and the work you perform are great! Hundreds of different types of equipment to work on, changing all the time. Mostly PoS and small electronics repairs, plus some light I.T. work, particularly in Datacenters, Outstanding local and regional team eager to help you in any way! Lots of overnight work and travel which means more $$.

    Cons

    The company itself is laughably disorganized. The change their name and "reset" your employment status every few months. No one above your field manager can be contacted for any reason; and no one even knows HOW to reach them. It is a logistical nightmare, as much of your mundane tasks normally performed electronically have to be done by pen and paper, and mailed in (no exaggeration!) It takes them almost 2 years just to send you an employee badge; and by then it's no good because they'd already changed their name 3+ times! To add to the confusion, they are subcontracted by other organizations, so each WO assigned to you requires that you "pretend" that you are working for another company. This requires constant lying to their costumers, and it's basically unavoidable.
