Sales Engineer at RoundTower Technologies
in Tampa, FL

"I absolutely love speaking with customers and learning/analyzing what the customer's business needs are, and gathering all of the facts and putting together the most technically and cost effective solution for the prospect or existing customer. The most undesirable fact of the job is when the customer asks for a product or solution in which I cannot deliver or even assure that we will deliver at a future date."

Sales Engineer at hibu
in Columbus, OH

What do you like about working at hibu?

"The company I work for (Znode, a Hibu company) is progressive, laid-back, and overall the best place to work in Columbus. Each member of each team is very talented, bringing unique skills to the table. Znode prides itself in being innovated, modern, trend-setting, and industry-leading. Znode is employee-focused, offering a wide variety of benefits. At the end of the day, I go home knowing I'm able to approach project owners and managers with new ideas for a better customer experience. Synergy is the name of the game."

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

"Get ready to be at the mercy of shallow-sighted management."

What don't you like about working at hibu?

"The managers have a knack for being very shallow-sighted, often subject to tunnel vision and narrow thought processes. Goals are determined by overseers, and are many times unrealistic to say the least."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"If I were running the show, I would concentrate on listening to my employee's suggestions for new products, instead of focusing on exactly what I want. I would have weekly leadership meetings, focused on growing employee communication skills through team-building exercises and collaboration."
