Field engineer - Anonymous employee Vitec Solutions Employee Review

Lots of autonomy. Work out of home office. excellent benefits. 3 weeks vacation time (15 days), paid holidays and floating holidays. Liberal expense allowance- essentially no limit. no out of pocket reimbursements, commissions are off dollar 1.

Very little marketing spend. Management works out of Buffalo headquarters most days- felt like I was under a microscope as everything is remotely viewed and retained- internet searches, CRM activity, phone logs and GPS. Prior Manager was great and supportive- new boss was a younger guy that came in from headquarters most days and lived too closely by the book. I felt micromanaged- got a better offer and left.

It's really a great opportunity here for anyone that wants to work hard, learn a lot, and be promoted based on recognition of hard work. Continuous learning. Company places a premium on certifications in an effort to maintain in front of the curve- so class time and certifications comprise a major percentage of my work time.

long and unpredictable hours and last minute travel expected which takes away from personal life. Attrition rate for entry level positions is rather high and work day is regimented. Customer service, help desk, and support staff leave the second their shift ends and they are required to keep time logs.
