Pros

Good benefits, decent pay out of college.

Cons

Wow where to begin... there was basically no training. The service that was provided to customers was awful if not negligent. Sales people were expected to handle everything with no support. We would ask our operations team when a mechanic would be sent to fix/upgrade an item and be told a day and time only for them not to show up. This happened to one customer 5 times in a row... What can you say to that?

Org changes are concerning

Pros

Industry leader in products and cultural values. Good place to start a career and gain technical experiences. Great place for those seeking to be a part of diverse teams.

Cons

Losing top talent, both voluntarily and involuntarily due to organizational restructuring. Company used to have excellent leadership with strong industry knowledge, however, has quickly turned into a top-heavy org with more “leaders” supervising and tasking the “doers” (likely due to lack of industry knowledge and unattainable targets)… a system that could fail if not fixed soon.

Pros

Wealth of knowledge and experience, a well known brand name, a lot of talented employees. Has all the potential to be great.

Cons

New structure has siloed and segregated all departments, individual department objectives cause major problems for other lines of business. Too many mangers cause micromanagement, and there are not enough hours in a day to complete all required work, that applies to field and office. Main focus from above is separating customers from their money and profit margins. Bonus structure is rigged like a casino, looks obtainable, but only if you over charge the customer to the point of forcing them to look elsewhere for better pricing. Office environment is extremely toxic and sales driven, leaving zero support for operations and field support. Mechanics forced to do drive by maintenance, which causes shutdowns and repairs, resulting in excessive costs for Otis customers. Office turnover rate is equivalent to a department store entrance, people are fleeing, especially managers. Sell sell sell is the one and only goal, even if it’s wrong. This is not the reflection of mechanics, but of management only, mechanics are embarrassed and disheartened by leadership actions.
