      Pros

      Friendly people and a nice building.

      Cons

      TKXS is the result of a merger between two fairly mediocre companies in the last year. The companies both had significant organizational issues and the merger is not working well at all. One company had poor management and the other seemingly had none - not the recipe for a successful merged org. I worked on a large project that was chaotic and poorly planned and organized. It even featured a questionable and rather exotic technical architecture choice. All of that was on the most important project in the collective company's history. People were grinding themselves into a pulp to get the thing done. Dismal. The technical side of the organization's management are finger pointers who are crisis-driven, meaning they evade problems until they explode. They manage up, not down, and are freaked out by honesty. Management seems to lack even a basic awareness of what people underneath them are doing (at least in Charlotte). Work somewhere else. Every organization has issues, but this was rather extreme and it was obvious within the first few days.

      Thank you for %E2%80%9CSpeaking Out%E2%80%9D (a TKXS value) and sorry to hear that you were unhappy here. It sounds like you were involved in the %E2%80%9Ccrunch time%E2%80%9D of your project during your short tenure here. The vast majority of contractors at TKXS preserver and transition to full-time employees ultimately enjoying a more balanced project cycle experience. It sounds like you%E2%80%99ve moved on and we%E2%80%99ve both had the opportunity to learn the importance of a thorough interviewing process. TKXS%E2%80%99 growth has been extraordinary and that creates stress as well as opportunity. We truly believe in helping all our partners reach their potential. We wish you all the best in next phase of your professional journey.

      Pros

      Before Technekes, I spent more than 10 years working for two multinational healthcare companies. They've both been in Fortune's "100 Best Places to Work," but neither of these were as good a place to work as Technekes. There are no big-company politics or bureaucracy. I can actually get stuff done instead of going from one mind-numbing meeting to the next. The people are nice. My manager is fantastic. I can go to her with anything and she listens and tries to help. Work is work, but I look forward to my job at Technekes. I wear a lot of different hats, and I'm involved in many different types of marketing and sales-related projects. The company values innovation and creative thinking, which keeps my job interesting. Best of all, I've learned a how marketing really works and how effective it can be in helping my clients be successful. It is a great feeling to know I make a difference, and I'm not just another hamster running on the big-company wheel.

      Cons

      I don't have a lot of gripes, especially having been "on the other side," but it would be nice to have more of a view to a career path. There's no set plan or employee levels, which can be intimidating to people coming from the corporate world.
