Vantaggi

I did get a schedule that was mostly okay, but involved me working all weekends, all the time.

Svantaggi

Training is basically non-existent. You watch someone doing their job and have several different accounts to learn, which doesn't lead to a good experience and you are left to sink or swim. I want to point out that it's not a person's fault if they sink - they simply don't have the proper resources in order to learn correctly, and that can only be blamed on a non-existent training program. Facilities training was not enough for me to know how to to fix an issue if one arose, which puts the building in jeopardy. Often issues are not handled right away and go on for months, putting the business in jeopardy as well. The place is normally empty with 1-2 other people in the building, which does not give a good work environment. Sometimes there's too much to do and sometimes too little, but we were never given the chance to hire new people due to upper management and budget while I was there. Overall, it can get your foot in the door for tech support opportunities, but that's it. There are no real opportunities for advancement and the benefits are not very good and are more expensive than at other employers. If an emergency arises, there is no emergency plan in effect for it, which is odd because this business deals with emergencies and disaster relief for other companies. I decided to take my losses and go.

Vantaggi

It's a paycheck. That's a pro.

Svantaggi

First off, this company is no longer CoSentry. They sold out to a larger company called TierPoint in January, and the merger was completed in March. No word of warning, no rumors, just an overly excited executive announcement email at about 10am, that we employees later found out came after TierPoint announced it on their website and Twitter account. Second, the training at CoSentry/TP sucks. The trainer at this company is a joke who has never taken a call and reads everything straight from the documentation. You learn more on your own and from your coworkers than from him. Everyone refers to training as nap time or extended break time, because he's useless. It's pretty bad when the new employees spend two weeks in training and come out knowing nothing more than how to log into their email, if that. Lastly, management is a joke, what there is of one. They can barely stand each other, the power plays are like a kindergarten stand-off, and the employees pay the price. One manager tells you to do one thing, the other tells you to do another, and wither way you go, you're wrong. Get everything in an email, because more than likely, someone will 'forget' and you'll get written up.
