Pros

Somewhat laid back. Don’t have to dress up. Sometimes dogs in the office.

Cons

Cliques. 12 days of PTO that also count as your sick days. If you get sick and are out for 3 days, you only have 9 days you can use for your vacation that year. Management will target you if they don’t like you. They say they want you to ask questions, but then they make you feel stupid. No direction. Very little training before throwing you to the sharks. Tasks that are mandatory change weekly it seems. No clear expectations are given prior to hiring. Underpaid for a job. They bring you in cheap.

Southern Computer Warehouse Response

Thank you for taking time and reviewing SCW. I'd like to address a few points you mentioned and extend an opportunity to speak over the phone. We truly value hearing from both current and past employees. You are correct that SCW offers every employee just over 12 days of PTO annually. Our PTO policy is set up to ensure customers, partners and fellow employees get the level of service they’ve come to expect from us. It's also important to note however that in addition to PTO we work closely with our employees and offer company approved paid leave when appropriate. Secondly, I’d like to address the “cliques”. We strongly support our employees becoming friends and strive to make our environment inclusive. As a result, employees form a bond over lunch, during breaks and after hours. Strong friendships are something we encourage and I am sorry you didn’t find that part of our company culture enjoyable. Although I understand your opinion, I also know these internal friendships have no bearing on management’s ability to make decisions. Lastly, we agree with you…respect is earned and we wouldn’t demand it from anyone. All of our employees work hard and genuinely start every day with the best intentions. I welcome additional feedback and you’re welcome to call or email me anytime. careers@scw.com Thank you.

Pros

SCW has made major improvements in training this year. Also, connecting the teams and growing together. Last year was a bit rough to be fair, but changes have been made that have helped immensely. The group here are amazing and work well together.

Cons

It would be nice to have some 401k matching. Also, if the insurance costs could be less.

Pros

Constant room for growth, good commission structure, good insurance benefits.

Cons

Office culture is toxic to an almost unbearable degree due to idle gossip on the sales floor including from management and HR, a lack of communication from management on how to improve if you aren't equipped to figure that out yourself, and very little teamwork to be seen despite peddling a "family" mentality in official meetings. Rapidly increasing positional turnaround within the company leading to overworking in multiple departments.
