Business Analyst at SHI International
in Somerset, NJ

What do you like about working at SHI International?

"Laid back, no stress in my department. Some departments have higher stress than others."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"If you're right out of college, SHI is a good company to build your experience. However, for someone who has experience, SHI in my opinion does not have the career growth or pay you are looking for."

What don't you like about working at SHI International?

"SHI still uses internal systems. Despite being a software reseller and tech company, SHI still uses DOS Mainframe for the sales reps to enter their orders. There is no ERP system to provide transparency among the departments. SHI sells licenses for SAP, SAS, and various business solution platforms but too cheap to utilize these systems, as a result the data and information is quite flawed."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"More synergy needed from different departments. Not enough pay incentive for employees to feel motivated or rewarded for their efforts, thus the large turnover rate."
