Pluspunten

The majority of the people you work with are fantastic.

Minpunten

Management has no clue as to how unfair and unbalanced they or their views are. The techs are asked to work/travel through their lunch hours, and if they don;t get to eat or want more time - they are advised to start early or stay late. They expect all of their employees - except for family and the two administrative people - to work at least 45-50 hours per week, and if they do not - they are reprimanded. However, management thinks this is not only fair, but also generous. Watch out though - salary here definitely does not work both ways. Even if you work over 40 hours that week - if you leave before 5 pm, they will take out vacation or personal time for it. During the interview process, they will tell you they do not micro-manage, but then you will have 15 plus emails in an hour asking about what you are doing.

Can be a little overwhelming learning to document your time when first learning the processes in place at first, but the systems in place do have a logic.

I cannot understand any of the reviews that deride Syscon as an employer. I have been at a few consulting firms, and Syscon is the best by far. They are very transparent with their people and have really good leadership in place. The work is challenging, but not overly so. The people are great and the company culture is easily the most dynamic and engaging I have seen. I love working with smart people and cutting edge technologies. They provide experiences via the wide set of roles in different projects which means that work is never stale. The support from management and ability to learn are 2nd to none and there are numerous initiatives within the company to encourage boundary pushing ideas. I highly recommend working at Syscon. Keep up the good work, guys!

Minpunten

Chicago weather in the winter!
