Pros

great benefits best medical and best 401 matching ever

Cons

training and onboarding are ineffective at best, I didn't get the tools I needed to simply do my job until 2 weeks before I was fired. I had to constantly BS clients that I knew what I was doing. when I didn't have the ability to look at the diagnostics on the very machines I was asked to repair

Pros

- Easy commute if you live north of Seattle/Bellevue - Decent cafeteria - Decent compensation

Cons

- The level of apathy amongst colleagues is off the charts. Many people are simply coasting and collecting a paycheck. When you try to be a team player and pick up the slack, you simply become a target for blame. - Due to the extremely lax "return to office" policy, the office often feels quite empty when there is plenty of work to be done. Being onsite M-F often leads to more work with little support. - There is a culture of public shaming, with several meetings every week dedicated to project leads targeting individuals to make up for their own lack of technical understanding.
