The training provided to help you understand the software PRICE Systems offers is unmatched. The company really wants you to succeed. They set aside some time for you to become very familiar with all of their products, all while providing 1-1 mentorship to help fill any gaps. Possibilities seem endless! At my last job, it seems that I was pigeon-holed into one job with a set number of job responsibilities. Here at PRICE, you are trusted "wear many hats" throughout your work day. It is never a dull moment, and I'm certain this job opportunity will help me grow exponentially as a professional in the industry. The culture at PRICE is one that I've never encountered before. There is not a single person within the company (even the President!) that I do not have access to / that is not willing to sit down and talk with me, whether the inquiries are general, project related, or personal. Everyone is very nice and supportive of one another. At the same time, they will keep it real with you. If you make a mistake, they are not afraid to let you know about it. This will ultimately help me refine my skills and allow me to attain my future professional goals.

Traveling is a huge part of being a Solutions Architect. Although I do not see this as a Con, others have to seriously consider if they're willing to travel upwards of 50% of the year (almost never the weekends). You start with 0 hours of vacation, so accumulating hours will be tough if you have pre-planned vacation upon accepting the opportunity. Although this was a concern of mine, the company was very aware that I had already planned a few vacations in the coming months after accepting the job. They are willing to work with you on a plan for allowing you to still take PTO with minimal hours accrued.

PRICE Systems is a great company filled with many talented people who are willing to go the extra mile to help you succeed. I started working at PRICE right out of college and have grown professionally and learned a great deal due to the many exceptional managers and co-workers that I have had. There are many perks at PRICE such as great pay, health/dental benefits, maternity leave, 401(k) matching, flexible environment, and a good work/life balance. There are also many fun events planned throughout the year that help make the office feel like a family. Management consistently sets clear expectations and values feedback from everyone. PRICE Systems is a company that truly cares about each employee and treats everyone with respect. I hope to spend many more years working for this great company!
