United Technical Support Services

Started out as a good company with good intentions and work ethics (or so they stated when hired) but changed completely within a couple years as many of us employees felt they bit off more than they could chew by taking on too much work for the number of employees that they had out in field. Also denied employees any career advancement or raises within the company.  Many of us technicians were promised these advancements as we worked many years without salary adjustments to our benefit.  Many limitations in overall benefits or improvement to our careers.  Enjoyed my work as well as others I worked with on the job sites.  Many employees left the company for the same reasons I did.  Company was not willing to adjust or see employees side of these issues.

I have been here a total of 14 yrs. There have been lots of growing pains as the company has grown from a small mom and pop to a Corporation. Things went sideways a few yrs ago and lost the small company feel. But in the last 1+ yrs we have taken a new approach on training and have a dedicated team of trainers to guarantee you learn properly and how to deliver quality workmanship. We have transitioned back to our core values and more personal touch. You will have a lot of travel but management will help make time for you to get home if you need time or a break. 

What is the best part of working at the company?
There's not a whole lot to be thankful for while working for Utss

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Dealing with anyone in the office. If you prove them wrong or tell them a better way of doing things, they will fire you.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Cut-throat. Plain and simple. Even if you have 30+yrs experience,  they will fire you for nothing 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
12+hrs a day 7 days a week. No down time to spend with family or even to go to the doctor. If you're single, you'll never see home.

UTSS has a long way to go to be perfect, but all things considered, this company has made great strides in the last few years. Renewing its focus on a people-first culture and going back to its roots of highly technical employees is positioning UTSS to succeed. Be aware, there is a lot of travel and they have a tendency to set high expectations. Overall, when you consider job variety, opportunity, management, I would recommend UTSS.

When I was working for them I had nothing but good experiences. Sometimes you won’t be home for 2or 3 weeks but the financial compensation makes it worth your while. All the managers I dealt with were super nice and and always tried their best to work with you when you needed a break. All in all, I regret not working with them anymore, as it was a rare, but interesting job, 90% inside .

Always on the road never anytime to do anything else. It takes your life away! Management is not on your side. Teamwork should be the answer but it seems as if everyone works on their with no care to train you properly. You're pushed to lead with very little experience and expected not to have any issues, oh yeah did I mention with very i mean very little training!

Once the original owner left over 5 years ago this place has completely fell apart. 
How much you make will vary in how much they like you, not by experience or time in.
You are 100% on the road with no help from the office staff.  
Biggest advice that I can give is stay clear or never take a Lead status, it's not worth it EVER!

A lot of historical turnover because company is not growing quickly, very gradual growth and high turnover of field employees results in upper management scrambling to keep field staff on rather than focus on growing accounts.

Overall Culture is great! People are nice and everyone works as a Team. I do not seem to have much of a life outside of work. The only time i am not working is when i am sleeping. 

Constantly traveling for no perdiem and very low pay,  the office management is absolutely unacceptable.  If your not related to the owners you will never make it in the owners family
