Pros

Entry into the tech industry

Cons

First off, don’t buy the 12 billion dollar company charade. As a reseller, revenue ≠ profit. Management’s entire job is to sell you that this job is a career & because they are so busy selling you this is a career, they won’t coach or teach you any kind of B2B sales skills. You will be told that you need to be more efficient to make more money, but that is just another gaslighting tactic. Your job will be to sell other companies on upgrading & buying new technologies, all while making due with the latest & greatest from a decade an a half ago systems. Extremely politically place, you’ll make more money by brown nosing your manager than you will from working hard so work smarter, not harder. Unprofessional management who hold subordinates to a double standard, it’s okay for managers to be dishonest, disrespectful & make out of pocket comments but as their subordinate you must show them the utmost respect. Unethical, the company only cares about high attainment & are willing to turn a blind eye to the methods by which goals are attained.

Pros

This may be a good place to start in order to gain experience in the industry at the entry level. Beyond that it should be a stepping stone.

Cons

The Glassdoor numbers say a lot. Only 50% of the people who work here would recommend to a friend or colleague. In school, 70% is 1% away from failure. SHI is 20% below failure. To add, 53% of the people who work here have a negative outlook on the company's future. That seems like a trend in the wrong direction. If your career is an investment in your life, that needs to be considered before investing a career into SHI.
