Pros

Do not waste your time. 11 years of employment with no raises. If you ask for pay increase. You will be lied to over and over

Cons

Management is inept at best.

Black Box Response

Thank you for taking the time to provide your review. For sure, there were some challenging years for Black Box prior to the acquisition, but I am pleased to report that merits raises were awarded last year (even during a pandemic year) and we are about to enter our next merit cycle to award raises for FY21 performance. This will be an annual process, just as most organizations go through. I'm excited that Black Box is past the financial challenges from several years ago and we are once again profitable and growing, not only in revenue, but also in the number of team members we are hiring. Thanks again for your feedback!

Pros

The data center work itself was interesting and there were opportunities to gain exposure to large-scale projects. Some coworkers on-site were supportive and hardworking.

Cons

Leadership and communication were extremely inconsistent. There was little structure, minimal training, and employees often felt like they were expected to figure things out on their own without proper support or mentorship. Workloads and expectations changed constantly depending on who you spoke to. The company talks about growth, but many employees are underutilized or not actually developed professionally. It often felt more reactive than organized, especially from upper management. Decisions were made with very little transparency, and morale suffered because of it. There was also a noticeable disconnect between corporate leadership and the realities of what was happening on-site. Many employees felt expendable rather than valued.
