Pros

- Exposure to a wide array of technologies by virtue of the immense scale of properties - Friendly workers (not management)

Cons

- Ticket rot is common. 864 properties supporting thousands of users while only having a handful of techs - Reckless onboarding of properties with no documentation (and they scratch their heads and scream at their workers once they lose clients) - No desire to actually solve issues in a root-cause analysis manner, just break fix support with no care for the client's success - Basically a giant call center in which you're expected to solve issues caused by Marriott/Hilton/whomever with no ability to actually create tickets through them (basically a scam) - Ownership is never explicitly mentioned, everyday is 24/7 constant stress and putting out fires - Literally no training given at all, sink or swim mentality, sweat shop style workplace - Management will scold and scream at you - Understaffed is an understatement; it's a miracle the place is still running - You will never be given a second to think; constant, neverending phone queue perpetually with people on hold - Employees are not appreciated and instead are blamed for every issue - Laughable pay, especially for higher tier techs (their SME was making 64k and they refused to pay him more; he then proceeded to get a job paying nearly twice that, so don't listen to them when they inevitably respond to this review with the lie of them paying techs according to market averages)

LEFCON Response

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. While we respect that every employee's experience is unique, many of the claims in this review are factually inaccurate and do not reflect the reality of our organization. LEFCON has been in business for more than 26 years and employs over 80 people, including more than 65 professionals in technical roles. The characterization of "a handful of techs" supporting hundreds of properties is simply untrue. We also strongly disagree with the assertion that properties are onboarded without documentation. Documentation is a critical part of our onboarding process, and we work directly with clients to review, verify, and maintain that information. Likewise, the statement that our technicians cannot engage Marriott, Hilton, or other vendor support channels is incorrect. Our teams regularly work with brand support organizations, vendors, and third-party providers as part of resolving client issues. As a managed services provider, helping clients solve problems is an important part of what we do. When a hotel loses connectivity, a PMS system fails, or a guest-facing technology issue impacts operations, our clients expect us to respond quickly and effectively. That responsibility comes with pressure, but it is also the nature of the role and the reason our clients trust us with their operations. We also disagree with the claim that there is no training. New employees participate in a structured onboarding process, and we provide ongoing access to training, certifications, and professional development opportunities. Like any technical career, growth requires initiative, but the resources are available to those who choose to take advantage of them. The suggestion that employees are not appreciated is equally inconsistent with the culture we work hard to build. We maintain an employee recognition platform, host multiple company events throughout the year, provide opportunities such as tickets to local sporting events, and regularly recognize team members for their contributions. We know appreciation matters, and we invest significant effort in demonstrating it. No company is perfect, and we continuously work to improve. However, many current employees have built long careers here, and several former employees have chosen to return to LEFCON after gaining experience elsewhere. We believe that speaks more accurately to the environment we have created than a single anonymous review. We wish you success in your future career and appreciate the time you spent with our organization.

Pros

Fun office perks like tickets to PPG events, along with things like a pool table, massage chair, and dart board helped make the environment more enjoyable at times. The TOC and weekend supervisors were great to work with—supportive, approachable, and helped make the day-to-day easier. There are opportunities for advancement, although the process didn’t always feel clearly structured or tied to a set timeline.

Cons

In my experience, working here was consistently stressful day to day. Management styles felt inconsistent, and at times it came across as micromanagement, which made it difficult to feel trusted in the role. There was a strong push to keep calls around 15 minutes, but many issues required more time to resolve properly. This often created pressure to escalate issues that could have been resolved if given a bit more time. Morning meetings and team chats could feel tense and overly critical, which made it hard to start the day in a positive or productive mindset. The workload frequently felt overwhelming, with what seemed like a constant backlog of tickets and escalations. Training beyond the first couple of weeks felt minimal. Most learning happened on the fly, which made the early stages of the role more difficult than they needed to be. Expectations didn’t always feel consistent—techs in similar roles could have very different responsibilities depending on the situation. That lack of consistency made it harder to know exactly what was expected and added to the overall pressure. Overall, I found the environment to be high-pressure and difficult to sustain long term. Others may have had a different experience, but this was mine.
