Pros

Having recently noticed a negative review, I decided that Sevatec deserved some love because I really enjoy working here. I joined Sevatec four years ago as a recent college graduate with a career path geared towards proposal management. When I realized that I wanted to focus more on graphic design, my manager was able to carve out a Graphic Designer position for me and develop a new career path. The President of the company also sat down with me to see what he could do to support me in my new career path. Although everyone’s experience in the firm is different, I’d take the negative reviews with a grain of salt. To prospective employees – here’s my advice. Understand that as a small business, each employee plays an instrumental part in the company’s success. If you want to go under the radar and just get by, it’ll definitely show. If you are a hard-worker that enjoys the excitement of a growing business, and want to feel like you’re really contributing to something, then Sevatec would be a good fit for you.

Cons

Since contract employees are dispersed across several different client sites, it can be challenging for employees at headquarters to connect and build relationships with those employees. However, in the past year, I've seen Sevatec make strides to bridge the connection, i.e., creating the Fitbit challenge, and holding Zumba classes at our gym

Pros

They pay well. Personality-wise everyone was nice to work with. Corporate believes they are doing right by their employees.

Cons

They seem to discourage out-of-the-box thinking. Additionally, don't expect to have a job once your contract ends. Upper management loves to make promises. In my experience I could not trust them. Generally speaking, every promise made was not followed up on. In some cases it felt as though they outright lied to employees, attempting to keep people engaged. Also, since they have no intent of keeping most folks long-term, there's no incentive to grow their employee's skill sets. Don't expect training budgets. Expect your skills will grow antiquated unless you keep them sharp on your own. Finally, due to size, and a hunger to compete with the big-boys, they take on contracts simply to grow their portfolio. Never mind the quality of the project. Beware, you could be placed on a contract doomed to fail. If that's the case, don't expect upper management will do much to right the ship, until it's almost sunk. You'd think it would be in their interest to salvage business relationships. That doesn't appear to be the case.
