IT Engineer - Senior Systems Engineer FirstService Residential Employee Review

Pros

Short commute and close to my home. Decent benefits, company owned cell phone and you are reimbursed for any company related travel.

Cons

Management wants you to go above and beyond your job title and as engineer/architect in IT your main focus should be that and not things such as project management. If the end user or employee has a mistake in a help desk request, you not only have to tell them their mistake but do the job for them as if you were a tier 1 support analyst. There is a reason why the Infrastructure team has such a high turnover ratio and the company does nothing to retain their employees.

Pros

They take good care of the office people

Cons

Field workers are second hand citizens. Nepotism by language. Promote people that don't have the skill sets to do the job. The people that have the common sense to be leadership at this point don't want the responsibility anymore. What does that say?
