Pros

There are absolutely no pros of working for this company.

Cons

This company changed their name from Staff IT to OperationIT, so I wanted to make sure to write a review so anyone considering working for this company knows to stay away. In the past year, a whopping 9 employees have resigned from this company. If you don't think that's a lot, consider this: the company doesn't have more than 30 employees TOTAL, including senior management. They have 5 offices in the US, yet no more than 5 or 6 employees in each office and this is a company that's been around for over 15 years. There are SO many reasons for the high turnover. The schedule is heavy. You are required to work 10 hours a day, but management will expect you to stay longer and come earlier. They can't make you do it, but they favorite and reward those employees that do. They will even call your cell phone during lunch time if they feel it is a "pressing" matter, which it never is. They have no respect or idea of what work/life balance is. Some of their employees (the favorites) will work on the weekends and on vacation as well remotely. On top of that, as a first year employee, you will receive only 8 days off of your choosing. That includes sick time. That is laughable; the worst I have ever seen in any company I have worked for. If that's not enough to make anyone leave, there is absolutely no culture. If you think that culture is not important, try working for a company that doesn't have any. Senior management consists of roughly 5 men, who with the exception of 1 or 2, are the worst leaders I have ever had the displeasure of meeting. They are the most disingenuous people you will ever meet and you should not trust anything they say. Employees are replaceable to them and all they care about is money in their pockets; they just don't know how to treat employees and lead a business. If you are considering working for this company, please read the reviews for Staff IT. All positive reviews were created by senior management when it came to their attention how bad their reviews were. I know each and every person who left a positive review, and I assure you they were all senior management (these are the reviews that were all written in July of 2014). Even if you are desperate for a job, I guarantee that any other company is better than this one and will treat their employees better. You will also work much less hours in any other company.

Pros

I have been working with OperationIT for nearly a year now and here is what I observed about the company.OperationIT fundamentally promotes ,fuels and values High-performance. For that very reason this is a place only for sharp talent seeking a structured growth platform in a fast paced environment. They have a strong client base and direct relationships and that gives one an opportunity to learn, access and interact with the very best in business. Every single member of this team goes out of their way to facilitate success and foster independence and that I think is truly remarkable. The Senior Management has a strong open-door, team-building approach where knowledge and roadblocks are explicitly shared and addressed. They want you to construct your individual edge with their clients and candidates and therefore are very willing to groom you under their guidance. Performance reviews and appraisals are time-honored. With introduction of flexi-timings, and a day off on your birthday, positively facilitates a good work-life balance.Most of the client/candidate follow-ups are within office hours.

Cons

Health Benefits still have room for improvement and so does paid time-off. We could use some more days. Also if you are not team and goal oriented, this is not a place for you.
