Pros

Snacks, food truck fridays in the summer, events, coworkers are great, president of the company (Kim, not Jim) is great, Director of Ops (Amber).

Cons

CEO is cold, plays favorites and makes people on edge. Micromanages departments where he really should let the managers take over-except the one department that actually needs micromanaging which is sales. A lot of his favorite managers spend good portions of their days in the break room playing Golden Tee that he bought and let the sales team pick (surprise, surprise). But he will be quick to hop on anyone else who he thinks is not meeting expectations. They will also work you to the bone and then act like you are not contributing enough.

Mobile Solutions Response

We have an open door policy and are always accepting of feedback and ways to grow. While you are entitled to your own opinion, it behooves me to defend my team members. My management and sales team would not be where they are without each of their individual, relentless pursuit of bettering one another and Mobile Solutions as a whole. From the beginning, Mobile Solutions has overcome challenges together, we face obstacles head on and don’t shy away from the difficulties. The true test of a person is how they handle the adversity thrown their way and each of my team members continually rises to the challenge. Good luck on your next endeavors, we wish you all the best.

Pros

Really the only pros this company had to offer is when the office was open. Fully stocked kitchen, food trucks, laid back office environment, dogs on Fridays. Work-life balance was decent once we went remote because you didn't feel the same sense of chaos as you did when you were in the office. I would always feel bad leaving work if it was busy, so I would stay a little later. Once we went remote, I could just walk away from my computer.

Cons

Hardcore micromanaging. Never seen anything like it. Never-ending turnover. Very low pay. Bonus metrics were easily manipulated and changed frequently without regard to the potential impacts to the team. If you're hired as a service desk rep, they expect you to stay as a service desk rep because they don't want to train new people. This is obvious by what I would say was a complete absence of performance reviews and coaching conversations. Lack of leadership. Any leadership the desk actually had was put there not because of experience, but because of familial ties. The management style was very reactive. Important conversations with us about potential changes were had only after decisions had already been made and implemented. The culture and values they promoted in their job postings and marketing was great on paper. Unfortunately, there wasn't much actual practice of those values.
