Vantaggi

-You really have a voice. I can think of a number of suggestions I made regarding workplace environment, processes and personnel that were implemented over the years. -You get to see a lot of technology. Since the clients vary in size and vertical, you really learn how to troubleshoot and get a deep understanding of how everything works. -Management really cares about career advancement. Switchfast reimburses and provides training time for certifications. -Most importantly, they really care about their people. I've seen them work with people a number of times when "life" issues come up.

Svantaggi

-A small but vocal minority of clients can be difficult, by either being rude, or forcing time consuming workarounds because they don't care to upgrade their infrastructure or use a business class solution.

Vantaggi

Plenty of growth and learning opportunities if you are willing to put in the time and push yourself a little outside of your comfort zone. Most environments are standardized in virtualization and certain networking hardware but there are still several environments that don't fit the mold and have unique more complex configurations. Certifications and other training are encouraged and will generally carry incentives beyond just personal growth. Management maintains an open door policy and it generally feels like you're heard when you approach management and C-levels with ideas, concerns, etc. They are often very flexible and are willing to work with people on most issues but they do expect a balanced outcome, so there is some give and take which, in my opinion, is a good thing. Just like most things, you get out what you put in. Switchfast is a great place to work if you are willing to keep your nose to the grindstone and always be pushing yourself.

Svantaggi

Despite standardization of hardware, virtualization, etc, the environments are often configured and supported in an inconsistent manner. Work/life balance can feel like it is pretty bad at times but that is generally the case in the IT field and especially with MSPs. The team structure works out to be 6-7 person silos which creates invisible walls and makes it difficult to feel like you're part of something bigger. Overall it felt like there was a lack of ownership across the operations team and sometimes interdepartmentally as well.

Thank you for your thoughtful and helpful feedback. I very much appreciate the hard work you and your teammates have put in to growing our company - and I recognize the effort it has taken. I am consistently impressed with the professional growth earned through that hard work. Your feedback about it sometimes being difficult to feel like part of something bigger is definitely an area we can target and work towards improving both in structure and in company-wide communications and activities. Our smaller teams benefit our clients through more personalized relationships, but we want to make sure you feel part of the culture as a whole here too. Thanks again! -Jim
