Vantaggi
SirsiDynix is a good company for someone looking to get into a field without already having experience in that field.
Svantaggi
While the company is decent, I feel it necessary to point out that many of the C-level execs/VPs do not seem to have their employees' best interest in mind. I did not really understand this until moving to a company where that is not the case. The VP's tend to stick together and spend money on themselves while keeping employee wages shockingly low compared to other IT companies. They aren't very involved with their employees and aware of how things really are within their departments. While I liked Bill Davison fine enough when I worked at SirsiDynix, again, I learned how removed he is from pain points for his employees and even how, in some departments, the way managers are treating their direct reports is simply NOT okay, or even ethical/legal. Basically, I was disillusioned as an employee since the company constantly tells its employees how great it is, and now I see otherwise. The turnover is insane because people can come in, get a little experience, and immediately leave to a company that will pay 200% of their salary (not exaggerating; personal experience) where they're treated better.
