Pros

Cons

If this company was a movie I would say it has a great trailer (how they present them self) but the movie is terrible (day to day company operation) Middle management has only one task and is to avoid any responsibility. Time after time you will be blamed for things that are completely out of your control. You will face angry customers that will take it on you because, guess what? you are the only one that will put the face to represent NENS. The people responsible of dealing with these issues will hide. There is a reason why the engineers turn around in this place is huge. You are just going to be butcher and thrown to the side of the road, and you are going look back thinking "was it worth it?" the answer is no. Is just a sad movie.

Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. As a remote engineer, you likely worked with us close to 18 months ago or prior. Our remote engineering team has not experienced turnover in quite some time. As a matter of fact, our employee retention rate for that team has been 100% for the last 18 months, even as we've grown close to 30%. The company overall has a retention rate of 92% plus over the same time period. While I can't dismiss the personal experiences that anyone says they've had, I can say that your depiction of middle management hiding from clients is not one that I've seen. While managers may ask employees to go outside their comfort zone from time to time (fostering growth opportunities) they are also more than willing to jump in and take over if that employee needs the coaching or help. I'm sorry if that was not your experience, and I wish you had shared that concern at the time. We would have taken it very seriously. Our employees voted us one of the best places to work in an anonymous survey conducted by Inc. Magazine in 2021. I'm extremely proud of our entire team and all that we've accomplished, but we are NOT perfect and you won't find anyone here claiming that we are. We face many challenges that growing companies face, but we seek out feedback (a lot!) and we take a pragmatic approach to continuous improvement. We have a lot to do, still, to make NENS the best company it can be. That's a constant challenge, and one that we welcome and embrace. Our industry is also a very difficult one. Technology is always changing, and we have to be on our feet constantly to adapt to those changes. That kind of pace is not for everyone, but for those who are fanatical about customer service, who thrive in high-change environments, and who like the challenges technology presents, I don't know of a better technology services company to grow with.

Pros

Larger than most MSPs, yet focused on employee well-being. The company has an excellent benefits offering, and a culture dedicated to hearing ideas from everyone. Continual learning is encouraged and celebrated for everyone. There is a strong focus on making sure the company is providing the right level of service to each customer. Work/Life balance is also highly encouraged (to varying degrees depending on the role. Teams are always willing to work with each other to drive success and make the customer experience better.

Cons

Not a great work environment for those looking to coast by. But if you're a driven person, there are great opportunities!

Pros

Lots of great co-workers, though they're turning over at a decent streak.

Cons

3x bad hires for a primary middle manager has taken its toll. They can't seem to find their place - are they simply a billing machine trying to get to an exit or do they just not know how to bill for decent service to make the numbers work?
