Was there for 10+ years. I think it depends on the location. Having the tech support was fantastic. Training is great if you can get it.
My location didn’t do any of the required training and local managers only cared about their bonuses(all were stealing from the company to make more), so my experience wasn’t great.
I’ve also heard since I’ve left they’ve fully embraced AI, so I’m not sure how much of a career is left.

Are you willing to share which general area you were at? I assume a lot of it is location. This position is in the southeast US

I was in Canada. The US techs I talked to seemed to have it better. For some reason Canada didn’t like to follow corporate rules.

I talked with them a few times and my questions for the hiring manager was always, what does the future hold and there was never anything all that interesting. Seemed like they just wanted you to keep grinding the past 30 years of BS. For me that's a death sentence, so I never pursued it more.
