Not a Great Place to Work - Account Manager Southern Computer Warehouse Employee Review

Pros

It is a decent starter job to get you out of the service or retail industry. It puts a LOT of things into perspective when you move on to another job. As in: "At least it's not as bad as this one place I worked..."

Cons

I believe the four 5-star reviews on the same exact day should be pretty telling. Also, going from a dignified and professional standard reply to negative reviews to childishly and unprofessionally picking apart each point, is also an admission of guilt to the truth of each point. I can absolutely confirm that the reviewer that complained of cliques is correct. Cliques tend to happen in any workplace, but the issue lies in the fact that the cliques are created and perpetuated by management and you will absolutely be targeted and treated differently by them if you are not part of their clique. I would argue that customers receive better service when the work/life balance of their sales reps are that of a quality one. 12 days of PTO (vacation and sick leave included) breed a culture of toxicity, both physically and mentally. If you do call out sick, you are often treated with resentment and doubt. The lack of trust from management to the employees is evident and will never result in effective leadership. This is not a sales company, it is an order processing center. The amount of stress that you are put under does not in any way equal the menial pay that you receive.

I appreciate you taking time review the company as a former employee. You were here for a number of years (3-4 years) so I'd certainly be open to discussing your personal experience working for us. Please call the main office line at 770-579-8927 and ask for HR.

Pros

SCW has made major improvements in training this year. Also, connecting the teams and growing together. Last year was a bit rough to be fair, but changes have been made that have helped immensely. The group here are amazing and work well together.

Cons

It would be nice to have some 401k matching. Also, if the insurance costs could be less.

Pros

Constant room for growth, good commission structure, good insurance benefits.

Cons

Office culture is toxic to an almost unbearable degree due to idle gossip on the sales floor including from management and HR, a lack of communication from management on how to improve if you aren't equipped to figure that out yourself, and very little teamwork to be seen despite peddling a "family" mentality in official meetings. Rapidly increasing positional turnaround within the company leading to overworking in multiple departments.
