Pros

1. SOME of the people there are great 2. See #1

Cons

1. Non-existent culture or identity (what does this company do well? What do they do? What is Andromeda? What's their story? 2. Non-existent processes (circus-like atmosphere) 3. Toxic attitudes (bad middle managers with bad attitudes) 4. Layers of Tape (why does a 50-person... oops, 40-person??? company need so many "leaders") 5. Office sabotage (literally the worst I've ever seen at any work environment) 6. Bad technology, bad equipment, bad office layouts, bad ideas, bad leadership. 7. Laid off 5 people in one day with no exit interviews (mine was a 2-for-1 we'll tell you and someone else at the same time, oh and She gets Severance but You Don't. Oh well!!!!) 8. Thanks for laying me off so I can go work at a real place now. 9. Nepotism (roughly 1/3 of the company is family, vendors and partners are chosen based on who is related to who rather than what they actually provide.) 10. Bad management

Pros

Benefits are phenomenal, they have a very good PTO package, and a sane, humane WFH approach. Have never seen a better place for that in IT than this one. Additionally, their Service Desk culture strives to help maintain a constant, measured pace and method of work. They have set realistic expectations with their clients, unlike many MSP's that set an unattainable expectation of immediacy and perfection. Finally, and this is huge in my opinion, they ACTUALLY have a tiered technical team, with real, numbers-based escalation parameters for tickets. Such a relief in the MSP industry that often has service desks that place an undue load on the primary response tier.

Cons

They're in a bit of flux currently, some changes have been going on in several teams. Additionally, the salary is not quite on par for the rest of the industry, and they are still working towards performance based compensation, BUT they genuinely are worth a pay cut if they offer you one. I hadn't realized just how much my time and energy were worth until I wasn't spending hours of them in transit every day.

Pros

Leadership who listens to ideas and how to improve the organization and our service delivery to our clients. Well defined core values. Well-rounded benefits package. Team approach to solving problems.

Cons

Working for an MSP is not for everyone. With a wide variety of clients, there are times when we are forced to constantly think outside the box and balance finding the solutions for the client, but balancing it with making sure it meets our standards and best practices. Flexibility, adaptability and being able to realize sometimes you need to seek advice from management or your peers is crucial.
