Pros

Dedicated had good benefits, good hours, and some nice people to work with. The two locations I worked at are in very nice locations in the area, so there was never any stress on getting to and from work. I rarely took work home, and if I did, it was to fix minor issues, answer some emails, or finish up a project before meeting with a client. The current (as of 2015) CEO, Don, is very good at keeping the business going, and the global reach Dedicated has is very impressive. If you're looking for a stable company with a good location in Wisconsin, I'd recommend this place.

A little history: I have a specialized skillset in web design, something that Dedicated liked about me when I was first hired. Pay was decent for one of the first jobs I held, but below average for someone in my position when compared to other companies. I was tasked to do things way outside the scope I was hired on to do. For example, a manager 'encouraged' me to work at Dedicated's Helpdesk with little to no training beforehand. I was told there were several other developers doing what I was doing. That number turned out to be just one - myself. The other developers hadn't even touched HTML - they had other specializations suited for databases or servers. So for the most part, I did projects alone. There were a lot of issues with how sales and other developers interacted with one another. I didn't hear anything about certain client requests until days later, and one sales rep actually FORGOT to mention a concern I had to one client, which set our team back several days trying to fix things. Management wasn't really present part of the time I worked there. After one of the managers left, we did pretty much everything autonomously. For me, I found it confusing as I had been told there would be a bigger presence with management at an all-company meeting. Finally, the main reason I no longer work at Dedicated was because they were unable to find work for me. Work that, ironically, they had plenty of when I was hired. What happened? Simply put, sales reps could not understand the importance of a modern, more responsive websites, and were unable to communicate that to the clients. We also priced our work far too high - $145 an HOUR! Average rates for WI are considerably lower. That was the primary reason people turned us away, and why I had nothing to do for nearly a month before I was terminated. If you have a very specialized skill set and this company is looking for you, I strongly suggest you turn them down.

Had decent work life balance. Had ability to work hybrid Great people to work with

Kontras

Wages were not what should be for positions. Worked hourly instead of Salary which caused wages to feel even less Newer management didn't help company felt as if didn't have direction and couldn't get out of the hole that was dug. Software took too long to replace and advance
