Flex

You could tell there was an invisible wall between the Verizon store personnel and the Flextronics technicians. Over time, the technicians started doing things that would normally have been done by a Verizon customer service representative in the store. The Verizon people were paid salary plus commission, while the Flextronics people were paid no commission. The technician positions were morphing into a Customer Service Representative position, and that was causing lots of consternation with the Verizon people, because the Flextronics people were suddenly taking sales and commissions away from them. It is a high turnover environment...in fact, I was let go from my position via a phone call from my manager. He didn't even have the guts to face me. Very dissatisfied.

salary,benefits and very old buildings

Work-life balance, nepotism, unfair pay and extreme lack of gender diversity among upper management. For the same title and workload, salaries can be significantly varied based on negotiation and favoritism. If one belongs to the old boys' buddy club all the way up to the executive level, that person can get promoted twice in a year vs an average person can get stuck in the same position for many years if not forever at 0%-3% merit raise. Some team and certain people within the same team can be extremely idle with minimum workload while other people or other teams can have big workload and work 60-70 hours per week - it all depends on the manager.

To much work not enough pay

Can't really say much downsizing because I like the job

Not a lot a room for growth in the company

very hard to go onward in job position

Low job security, not much focus on grooming people, implementation of policies is largely based on manager discretion; if you don't have a mature reporting manager it can be tough

Can't grow, bad salary for it position
