I can understand a standard background check, but it became too personal. The people on the desk were very nice and helpful.

They didn't leave a lot of work to help desk and most issues were routed out, I felt I could of resolved a lot of those issues."

That was an understatement. In comparison to the amount of work that I do and the compensation received, I'm nowhere near my colleagues in other companies. Additionally, I was hired because of my IT technical knowledge. This is heavily underutilized. I feel more like an accountant than an IT professional."
