Pluspunten

I truly think it depends where you work - if you're in Seattle or Toronto it's a wholly different experience than if you're in Chicago, for example. I worked in Chicago and it was good before they went private and quickly went downhill after. But they try really hard to keep culture strong and have beer on Fridays, casual-ish dress codes, foosball, cool office location, good benefits.

Minpunten

The sales team is always getting crushed by CDW and SHI who are much bigger, non-Canadian companies. Rotating sales managers in Chicago meant uncertainty and unhappiness as well as high rep turnover. Comp plans often came out 4-5 months into a given year. Most people seemed pretty unhappy in their role except for the very few who were in the inner, inner circle.

Pluspunten

Remote work Recently acquired by WWT

Minpunten

What they tell you the role is definitely is NOT what it is. How they deceive you into taking this role is unethical. They promise you inbound and warm leads and claim to be the preferred AWS Partner but AWS doesn't want to deal with us at all because we don't have the technical staff qualified to support their customers. When we acquire AWS customers they wind up having a bad experience and Softchoice has a really bad reputation internally at AWS. They target ex AWS employees because they are already certified & they already have contacts. Meanwhile all the managers are not even certified, which means they don't know the content and can't talk with AWS Leaders effectively. There's favoritism so some people are forced to call nonstop and send emails but the people with sales don't do that. To cover it up, they just started having those people make calls but several months of records tell a different story. Management is extremely inexperienced and underpaid so they have side businessss and podcasts.
