Pluspunten
They're very accommodating when it comes to work/life balance. It's also a great place to learn a lot about IT and how different companies operate.
Minpunten
They change internal procedures quite a bit, testing what works and trying new things.

I've had a very positive experience working here. The company genuinely values its employees and provides opportunities for professional growth, learning, and advancement. Leadership is approachable, communication is transparent, and there is a strong culture of collaboration across teams. The work is meaningful, and employees are trusted to take ownership of their responsibilities. I've found my coworkers to be knowledgeable, supportive, and always willing to help when needed. The company also invests in technology and process improvements, which helps employees be successful in their roles. Work-life balance is respected, and management understands that employees perform best when they have the flexibility and support they need. The benefits package is competitive, and the organization continues to look for ways to improve the employee experience.
Minpunten
As with any growing organization, there are occasional process changes and evolving priorities that can require adjustment. However, leadership is generally receptive to feedback and works to address challenges as they arise.
Pluspunten
Netstandard offers decent benefits. Pretty okay health coverage for its size. Okay work-life balance. Easy to take PTO. The retirement plan fully vests the company match after three years. Parking was free for the office unlike other Kansas City offices. Scheduled remote work days were allowed. Manager was accommodating with adjusted start times for school drop-offs.
Minpunten
The company consistently loses younger help desk staff and engineers due to a lack of proper training and system documentation, often throwing new hires in without support. Management openly criticizes employees’ personal lives and skill levels out loud, in the office. Client documentation is minimal to nonexistent, as employees fear losing their jobs. Heavy-ish work load depending on how many clients. The fractional HR function is largely ineffective and offers little support. If you take PTO while on-call, there is a real risk that your manager will fail to inform the help desk and they'll constantly call you. As staff leave and open positions remain unfilled, on-call rotations become MUCH more frequent. Performance reviews appear to be performative and passive aggressive. You will get very little value from these if your manager decides to actually do them. Volatile office politics contribute to an unstable and stressful work environment.
