Great place if you fit the mold

Pros

Pretty decent flexibility on work schedule and relatively good on cross group/team collaboration if you work at it. Great commaraderie in some of the smaller branches/ groups.

Cons

Disparate selling groups competing internally is a huge hinderance. Reliance on driving adoption from the bottom up without support from the top down is big challenge. Management at and above director level not always honestly supportive and often look for a scapegoat when goals are not fully met (after being inappropriately set). Also too much reliance on letting some of the suppliers influence disproportionatly the business goals, direction and participation of Arrow employees.

Pros

Great Company with a strong vision. Strong Leadership in Tony Parella - he makes you feel incredible. Shared Technologies has a very strong position in the industry, and has made strategic moves ahead of the industy to maintain it's competitive position.

Cons

The telecommunications industry is changing rapidly with shifts in manufacturers and technologies. This has created a very tough working environment where it is difficult to maintain strong customer relationships, profit margins, and pay like we have enjoyed in the past. This is industry wide, and not specific to Shared Technologies.
