I start my work at about 8:30 CST, I set up my meetings and choose the best place or way to take them. Sometimes I prefer walk and see people to discuss face to face. It is fun to work with Mexican people as they are kind and happy. 
At lunch time, I sometimes drive home to take lunch with my family. Once we complete lunch, I continue working from home until the end of the day.
My leader provides excellent feedback to my work and provides what I need to do it.
I like my job, I like what I do, the only thing I need is to find more opportunities to continue with my career growth and to have promotions which are not very often.

Internally- the projects move very fast, the company has a robust outdated structure, too much overhead with audits, and too much useless management.
Externally- depends on the client it varies on the maturity of the client, but there are tons of opportunities to grow and advance.
Pay sucks! benefits Suck! they charge the client 170% of what they pay you.
im in mexico dont know about usa

I've been almost all of my career with them and I can say it's been great. 
Being a contractor always has some limitations on how much you can grow in certain areas, but also gives you opportunities to learn in different lines of business.

the opportunities to grow inside the company exists, and also opportunities to move to a different location, like in my case I started in Mexico and now I'm in the USA branch.
They make efforts to have employees trained and happy.

The company is great in operational terms and with a lot of technical positions, but if you want to reach any of the management positions, it's very difficult. The training is focused on technical (hard) skills, but the managerial training is reserved for friends. Variable compensation (if exists) is more based on your relationship with the senior managers (discretionary) than on your achievements. You can work at your own pace, but without losing the focus on your goals.

Softtek is a company that offers awesome tools to help their employees to grow professionally, you can build a solid career path on what you are interested in, whether it is staying on the technical side or project managing side. You can advance as much as you want professionally because there is always a place for more. Internal culture is of collaboration and it's easy to work as one team. Regarding compensation and benefits, they still need to improve a lot on this to be more competitive with other similar companies.

Softtek is the largest IT services company in Latinamerica. It has more that 6000 employees globally. Its a great place to start a career and to grow. Senior management needs to try harder to retaing top talent. They will let you go if you are expensive an not assigned to a customer. However they will make a huge effort to retain if your profile can be assigned.
Great values and adherance to industry IT frameworks: ITIL, CMMi, Compliance like SAS70, etc.

I work L2 Help Desk and I am an expert in the problems of Teamcenter and NX CAD software, I received Incident reports from engineers who are having problems with the software and related software and the PC. Interesting work. The problems frequently repeat. I develop a solution and share it with other members of the support team. I have developed a knowledge database for the team.

This job help me to understand and create experience with more formal requests, petitions, use a ticket management platform a more professional approach in the workfield. I would totally recommend this place to anyone, everything is great!

At first they treat you really nice, I was part of a transition team from a previous vendor, and this involved looong hours.

After those hours were worked they told us only some of those hours would be payed.

Once the transition was over and the business was stable and on good condition they got rid of a lot of people who helped get the job done and replaced them with cheaper work force.
Great way to say thanks ah!?

The Senior Management has been there forever, so there is no opportunity to grow up only if you have a strong relationship with those at the top. There is no career path and if you are on-site (outside Mexico) at a remote location, practically you are forgotten. The workplace culture perms good for those in Mexico, but it's hard to reach out the persons in the US.
