Pros

centrally located, lots of young people working there. some fun activities. Most co-workers are cool. sorry but that is all the PROs I can think of but I must put in at least 20 words.

Cons

You have to watch your back there. HR and management are always looking for excuses to get rid of people. The turn over ratio at that place is UNBELIEVABLE. SSR-Sales Support Reps are hired by the hundreds yearly because the job sucks, is stressful and pay is rediculous. A lot of people are treated unfairly and management/HR will not back you. The company is Unethical in the ways they handle employees except for the executives of course. The executives are allowed to do unethical things without consequences. Even their CEO is under investigation for unethical behavior. It's just a GOOD OL BOY club there between HR and upper management. Does anyone really want to deal with kind of treatment? The pay there is average at best anyway. I would avoid this shady company.

Pros

The sales leaders and teams were great, and treated like stars. The company seems to be ran by its sales personnel. Lots of give aways and soft incentives for sales.

Cons

Finance department culture is not so good. The financial execs will just outright ignore anybody who is not management or higher. Blame shifting happens a lot, lots of finger pointing, a lot of 'that's not my job", and very little collaboration. I would never go back to this place or recommend that anyone go job n this company, unless you are desperate for work.

Pros

I am part of the Legacy Avnet team who has survived the Tech Data layoffs. Avnet was more of a family environment with a lot of little niceties that just made it feel like home. Tech Data stepped in and all of a sudden the entire office atmosphere changed. Now it's no longer going into the office and greeting your co-workers and colleagues, is going in seeing them and saying you made it in reference to the last round of layoffs. Despite this, I continue to work there because I like my job and I absolutely love my customer. The customer makes it all worth it. Not sure what I would do if they tried to move me to a different team.

Cons

Tech Data consistently lays off entire Departments of people without telling you who to go to for what in their absence and creates the same positions in Guadalajara Mexico. They are taking jobs out of the US and moving them abroad.
