Pros

Softchoice was a good place to word for the period of time I was there. My boss was excellent and really pushed for us to learn, grow and work our way through the business. Due to my specific circumstance I was able to get a ton of training and work on interesting projects which have now become part of the Softchoice sales process. The Softchoice culture is also really big with the company. This is usually a good thing as it does make it feel like you are working for a particular company with an identity it's trying to build/shape.

Cons

Pre-sales does not seem to have a long term positive outlook at softchoice. Career advancement opportunities are limited, and compensation is low compared to the market. The culture can also be bad in the sense that it seems to but what there is a lot of focus on over the other things that could engage employees

Pros

Remote work Recently acquired by WWT

Cons

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.
