WorkSmart Senior Project Engineer Review
Low Pay and High Turnover
Senior Project Engineer (Former Employee) - Durham, NC - December 1, 2021
Lots of work and plenty to do. Management is not honest and holds grudges if you bring up something that needs correcting.Would not work for them again, and very low pay for the same jobs that are offered by competitors at a much higher pay scale. Lots of overhead to cover, and a small percentage of billable staff.
Pros
Good Customers
Cons
Low pay, bad management, huge turnover

Position cut due to loss of clients
IT Consultant (Former Employee) - Durham, NC - March 20, 2018
Great company in almost every way possible for the market they function in. Great team, good ability for each consultant to rearrange their own days to deal with clients and may more good things. As an Managed Service Provider for IT however I ended up hitting one of the major issues with an MSP as an employer. They lost several large clients due to those clients choosing to switch to internal IT and as a result had to cut positions one of which was mine.
