Vantaggi

Flexible work arrangements for most jobs.

Svantaggi

The current CTO doesn't own anything except wins. All problems are "caused by people that came before him." Bad decisions being made on staffing, technology, and more. He doesn't like being challenged and doesn't take well to difficult questions. Tenured staff leaving in droves (Thad is no longer the CEO, he left over half a year ago), and for good reason. People that have been with the company 10, 15, 20 years - leaders that we all loved and respected, are gone or on their way out. Telus acquired TKXS about a year after the merger of XS and Technekes and stopped supporting and providing resources for integrations efforts. New management is now under the perception that TKXS was broken before being acquired when the fact is that the Telus acquisition is what broke it. They set up TKXS for failure. Every decision being made is driven by the bottom line. The mediocre/poor comp, training, culture budgets - the entire benefits system Telus has setup seems designed to drive out more expensive, knowledgeable employees and bring in newer talent that's willing to work harder for less money. TKXS used to be about doing right by employees and partners, the new Telus-owned TKXS is 100% about EBITDA/profitability.

Vantaggi

Before Technekes, I spent more than 10 years working for two multinational healthcare companies. They've both been in Fortune's "100 Best Places to Work," but neither of these were as good a place to work as Technekes. There are no big-company politics or bureaucracy. I can actually get stuff done instead of going from one mind-numbing meeting to the next. The people are nice. My manager is fantastic. I can go to her with anything and she listens and tries to help. Work is work, but I look forward to my job at Technekes. I wear a lot of different hats, and I'm involved in many different types of marketing and sales-related projects. The company values innovation and creative thinking, which keeps my job interesting. Best of all, I've learned a how marketing really works and how effective it can be in helping my clients be successful. It is a great feeling to know I make a difference, and I'm not just another hamster running on the big-company wheel.

Svantaggi

I don't have a lot of gripes, especially having been "on the other side," but it would be nice to have more of a view to a career path. There's no set plan or employee levels, which can be intimidating to people coming from the corporate world.
