Yeah I got a desk facing in towards the atrium, so I can at least be occasionally reminded that there’s an outside world. ---

I went to a wedding which the groom (a very good friend of mine) works for Ingram. The table I got stuck at was full of the worst people I’ve ever met in my life. Purple and teal shirts everywhere, ties too long and a ton of invicta watches. ---

I still think Ingram is a great company but with the volatility of a lot of their departments I don’t know about making a career there. ---

Don’t know about the company but the building is pretty sweet, was there a few times for Symantec User Group for Netbackup and Backupexec. Also I know a guy who was working there last i checked, name was Pete Avino, he use to be a network engineer at Clientlogic. ---

geehee still in market dev or something else? coming up on one year this month for me. i honestly can’t complain too much. ingram has its quirks, but again it comes down to your vendor, team, manager, and what you make of it. seen quite a few people get experience here and then go up the ladder elsewhere (on the tech side). ---
