Pros

Great people. The Operations side of the business is an effective unit that supports one another, and works cooperatively to support our clients. Primarily work from home, with a commitment to go into the office once a month (more if you want). Limitless career opportunities within the organization and industry. Good benefits. Protection of work life balance, flexibility to get to appointments

Cons

We're a sales organization, so individuals not in sales wouldn't get invited to vendor sponsored food truck days and other events meant for sales to engage with vendors to sell those vendors offerings. Parental leave top up is for 12 weeks (good if you're in the US, not amazing if you're in Canada, albeit better than nothing). Vacation time tops out at 4 weeks after 5 years.

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.
