Think twice before leaving your job and going to this place

Pros

Met some very nice people that are easy to work with and are very professional.

Cons

I resigned after just a few weeks due to the unclear expectations, nonsense objectives with obsolete 30+ years old software and tools, contradictory assignments, and a clueless manager on the area I had been hired for; the worst I have seen in 20+ years, working both as a full time employee and as consultant for many US and three European organizations. Fortunately for me, I was able to go back to what I was doing prior to making the mistake of coming to SGS. You might not be so lucky. You might want to think twice before you quit your job to work in this place. At least you might want to find people that work in the department you would work and ask them personally what they think before you jump. To make matters worst, as I was in good faith loading all my files to the project SharePoint sites before I leave the company so that others could easily find them, a thuggist guy from HR came to my office and followed me on my way out to make it look to other employees and my peers as if I had been terminated or fired by someone and he was escorting me out of the company. This was quite unprofessional, thuggist, and unwarranted. Fortunately, I copied myself in my resignation email and have the prove that I resigned just a few weeks into this nightmare without anyone terminating me and asking to resign.

Pros

You work on your own, vacation time and sick says. 401k that's about it.

Cons

They have taken away the car allowance only pay.34 per mile!!! Manager's have no idea what the inspector's do on a daily basis. Not one off then have ever inspected a vehicle. Clueless. Key account managers are just the same. You ask them a question and you get the " I will call you back on that" which they never do. They treat inspector's as the enemy.

Pros

Huge company, many locations, most people friendly

Cons

Do not keep promises made. Will tell you what you want to hear but will not follow through. Management is fluid with many changes. Raises almost nonexistent and work load unrealistic for what they want done
