Terribly Mismanaged Acquisitions

Pros

Pre-acquisition, Pomeroy was on a great upswing, signing deals with Blue Chip and Fortune 500 clients left and right. The culture was budding into something truly desirable, and opportunities were available.

Cons

Post-acquisition, being a US based employee means you are effectively expendable. Laughable "Path to a New Tomorrow" initiative that in practice means "no one can see more than 10 days ahead of them but it's bound to get better!" Cutting operations and service delivery teams staff across the US and re-homing to South Carolina or California while building absolutely ZERO redundant systems with the global organization outside of HR and Sales. Making up related transition plans as they go along jeopardizing not only the well-being of the employees but also the clients who rely on these teams. No transparency - yet most of us hear we're losing our jobs through the grapevine weeks in advance of any official announcement. Bottom line, Executive Leadership is woefully lacking, both in the US and abroad.

Gone downhill

Pros

People are great to work with and generally pull together to get things done

Cons

Too much work, not enough people. Lot of redundancies and not replacing leavers. No strategy - the company is in a mess and not paying its bills - even salaries can be paid late. Expect staff to put in more effort, work longer hours etc for no reward. No pay rise for 5 years. Bonus based on country you live in, not whether you have earnt it.

Poorly Managed

Pros

Before Getronics purchased Pomeroy there were many good things to say about the company but after Getronics acquired them the business is being dismantled and I would highly recommend you avoid this company.

Cons

The company is a financial mess and last week they were unable to meet payroll. The CEO has a big ego, doesn't care at all about his employees and has a track record of acquiring companies and not having enough cash to properly finance them.
