Workwave

Marathon Data provides their employees with a fantastic work/life balance, FREE lunch DAILY, awesome company culture, great benefits, generous PTO, and a casual work environment. They spend ample time looking for the perfect candidates for the company, which in turn makes the company extremely successful. 

If you are looking for a job where you feel appreciated, and can leave at the end of the day feeling accomplished this is the place for you.

Marathon also provides their employees with the opportunity to volunteer for the community in numerous different ways. We've successfully completed food-drives, clothing-drives, volunteered at the Food bank, etc. We celebrate work anniversaries, birthdays, birth announcements, etc. It's great to be apart of a company that celebrates BOTH professional success, and personal success. 

This is a very large company, but its extremely tight-knit. Employees are friends, and work together on a day-to-day basis. 

Upper management is interested in what everyone thinks of the company, and seriously listens to our opinions and suggestions to constantly evolve our culture. I've never been apart of a company that is so invested in their employees and their futures within the organization in my 3+ years working professionally.

I had seen that WorkWave had won awards as a top workplace. I turned down 2 other jobs to work there. And most of the company lived up to the hype. Enjoyed my brief stint there. My teammates were awesome and always willing to help. The work was good and challenging but still a bit too much dependency on outdated tech (VB6 DLLs? Hadn't seen those in many years.) They are working on addressing that though. My boss, What can you say about a guy who gave no negative feedback for a month and then suddenly let me go. Then drops off the zoom after about 15 seconds while I'm still in shock. Okay I'll say it: "cold and cowardly". I was still fairly new but had already fixed many bugs w/o getting the full benefit of shadowing longer tenured people. That's on me I should have asked for his time more aggressively. I was hoping once we had people in the office it would work better. And I did aggressively ask about people going into the office. The HR management was great, but the IT management was horrible. I was still eligible for other positions within the company, but I told HR management I was withdrawing my application because the IT management I encountered showed a stunning lack of leadership, integrity and professionalism.

In my department, the atmosphere is generally flexible, supportive, and friendly. However, the culture can vary greatly across different departments, so it depends on the department you belong to. Currently, there are limitations due to the company's multiple acquisitions, as the organizational structure, culture, product positioning, personnel training, and career planning have not been fully integrated yet. However, this is a direction that the company is actively working towards. The company also anticipates that these acquisitions will create greater market value. One of the strengths of the company is proactive communication between upper and lower management, with regular quarterly meetings to update on the company's performance and development direction help people to understand the overall situation and other business entities. In summary, I believe it's a good working environment suitable for those who prefer stability in their job and value work-life balance.

My company was acquired by Workwave about a year and a half ago, and I've been pleasantly surprised with how the acquisition has gone so far. It's never fun to get acquired by a bigger company when you're a small locally owned one, but the biggest thing I've been impressed with is how WorkWave doesn't just talk the talk when it comes to work-life balance - they walk it too. The company recently rolled out a flexible/unlimited PTO plan this year and is very supportive of employees taking time off for appointments, personal commitments, vacations, and mental health days. We are all encouraged by our managers to take care of ourselves and take the time off that we need, and it's obvious how seriously the company takes their employee's work-life balance. I feel really grateful to work for a company that not only encourages this but has policies in place to support it!

Whether you work for Workwave, or Coalmarch by Workwave, you’re going to be forced to nod and smile while they constantly throw process changes and company updates at you. If you ask questions or speak up when asked to give feedback, you’ll be told you’re negative and not a team player. There is also a history of increasing your work load without increasing compensation - which is already low for the industry. Employee turnover is pretty routine as well, so you’ll be expected to do more work whenever that happens. Upper management is very clique-y, so it’s important to bond with them so they treat you well - if they don’t like you on a personal level you’ll definitely be able to tell. This company is good for a foot in the door,  but you’ll have to step on others to grow here and there are limits to where you’ll get since upper management rarely leaves.

I've been working at WorkWave for about 3 years now snd I love working here! To start, the people are awesome! Really enjoy everyone I've had to interact with. They are all professional, friendly, and caring. 

 The company as a whole has great benefits and allows you to have a great work/life balance. 

I'm able to work remotely as often as I need (currently during the pandemic we all work remotely all the time) but when I go to the office I love it. They are located at Bell Works, a super cool building with a deck, a couple of lakes, a basketball court, a library, a gym, and multiple stores. If this is not enough the building hosts events often, like a weekly farmers market on Wednesdays. 

All in all, I can't recommend WorkWave enough!

What is the best part of working at the company?
The best part of the company was working with employees who had the same mindset. We wanted to help our customers no matter what. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Not knowing when you would be let go, The last 2 years of the company were the most stressful with the C-suite take over and then the outsourcing and firing of technicians was incredibly stressful for all working. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The work environment and culture was great when things we within our control. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
You would sign into your laptop, get on the phones, field tickets and sign out. Very straight forward 9-5 job.

Marathon Data Systems has one of the best company cultures I've experienced in the last 5+ years of my professional career. Even though it is a larger company, everyone is extremely supportive of one another and almost everyone knows each other's names. 

The management team is top notch. They are very transparent, non-intimidating and make themselves available to all employees. 

This company is in the fast lane for growth, and I am proud to be a part of it.

Additionally, this company has some great products that employees can be excited about. Very progressive technology and always looking towards the future.

WorkWave provides exciting and lucrative growth opportunities in a stable industry; what more can you ask for? But that's not why you work here; you work here for the relationships you'll form and the culture you'll be apart of.

Whether you're looking for an organization to stick with and grow or just looking to start your career and learn, I couldn't recommend this company enough. The people you'll interact with here at WorkWave will motivate you, make you laugh, be there when you need support, and genuinely care about your growth.

I truly enjoy the work I'm doing and the people I work with, and am very appreciative of the flexibility and work-life balance provided to me. Everyone I work with is supportive and hard-working, and everyone is working towards the same end goal. There's a lot of collaboration across teams and departments, which gives us exposure to other parts of the company. I also feel like the leadership of both my department and the company overall is very transparent and communicates well on what our goals are, where we're at, and where we're heading. There are also plenty of opportunities for growth and continued professional development. Benefits have improved and hopefully will continue to improve!
