Working at PRISM POINTE TECHNOLOGIES — Reviews by Employees

Cliff King is doing government contracting, and at the same time not paying his subcontractors. How can he do that and not lose his government contracts and security clearances? The company is as much a joke as Blackwater was, ripping off the givernment. In the USA he has contracts with government agencies and failes to pay the workers. the real scum are the workers at Prismpointe who know this stuff and still help the company screw others. DOL should inspect the company for stealing from the government. DOJ should inspect the company for defrauding the government. DOD is so screwed up to allow someone like Cliff King to be a contractor.

Absolutley worst job I've ever had. Cliff King should be in jail...he mistreats his employees, steals from the company to pad his hunting lodge in Mississippi and overpays his kids who work there.

I have done the work and I have not been paid.

The people who answer the phone are not helpful.

Messages are not returned.

This company is one non-stop ripoff.

No Problems

What goes around come back around. Prism Pointe is being sold to another company.

on march 1st, 2010 i was offered a job servicing lexmark printers at kaiser oakland for prism pointe technologies if i passed a drug test. being a MEDICAL MARIJUANA PATIENT with a valid card, i knew i would test positive for marijuana. i called curja jackson immediately and told her i would test postitive for marijuana. she said "show them your card at the drug test lab. i did this. the vp of operations corey rickman called me on the 5th and asked a few questions about my marijuana use. john marquiz called me and was also aware of my marijuana use. after all of this i was STILL HIRED. i reported to work on the 9th and was called one hour later by ms. jackson and was dismissed for testing positive for marijuana. i was honest and upfront and fully expected not to be hired when i revealed my medical marijuana status. but to be hired and then fired like this is unacceptable and i can not just sit back and take it. i am seeking every possible way to report this. i am also investigating any and all legal actions i may be able to take against ppt, lexmark, kaiser and all involved parties.

They won't pay you. They won't even talk to you, unless you will work for free!!

PPT does not follow through on their promises nor do they pay you when you turn in your expenses in a timely manor. Their HR department is a joke and does not even return your calls or emails when there are problems or questions. Even if you work for them and are directly on their payroll, they will at times not pay you and if you quit, they will fight giving you unemployment. I don't know too many folks that would not quit a job if they were not compensated in a short amount of time.

Great company to subcontract for, if you don't mind never being paid.

PPT dose not supply their technicians with A computer, proper working tools, service manuals, competent technical assistance, communications, training in any way shape kind color or form! The pay at about $17.00 Hr. is well below the national average of between $20.00 to $25.00Hr. for technical service Personnel. Technical ablility below average, if you can load and work a flashlight you get the job. If you have to use your own car and you will the mileage promised is $0.26 a mile. Far below the national average of between $0.35 to $0.45 a mile. If you receive one complaint from one customer you are out of your possition right then and there you have no chance of explaination or rebuttle. You are also expected to use your free time to fillout paper work! If there is some little training matirials avalible again you are expected to do this on your time never company time!

In Short:
1. Pay: Far below national average
2. Mileage: Extreemly below national average
3. Training: Non-existant
4. Technical expertise: Very Limited
5. Tools: Not Supplied (use your own)
6. Tech Manuals: Avalible on line only (Lap Top Not Supplied)
7. Communications: Not supplied (Use your own cell phone)
8. Re-embursment: Always very late if at all
