Additional Facts About Work with Us

Career Work for Network Engineers, Desktop Support Technicians,
Security Experts, and Online Help Technicians
Progent is seeking to find staff-level, solutions-oriented Microsoft accredited engineers with Microsoft MCSE, MCSA, or MCP credentials; Cisco certified system engineers with Cisco CCIE certification; security consultants who have CISA or comparable security certification; and high-end system design consultants with a background in mobile solutions, wireless networking, service continuity, business continuity, data protection, and server virtualization. Progent also is looking for employees who can work on our staff of helpdesk support technicians and off-site troubleshooting experts. In addition, Progent is hiring talented administrators who can perform productively in Progent's high-growth, virtual office culture.

By supporting a team of talented and motivated consultants, providing world-class client care, and offering a competitive results-focused fee structure, Progent has been able to expand our client base dramatically while delivering consulting services to numerous companies in the San Francisco area and across the United States. An advanced virtual office environment, a shared knowledge base, and a team approach to problem solving have allowed Progent to retain a skilled staff and a loyal client list.

If you are a network professional with technical support expertise, joining Progent or helping Progent's clients will expand your knowledge through interaction with Progent's staff of mutually supportive, talented engineers. Progent's commitment to delivering network expertise and technical help to small organizations will give you the chance to collaborate intimately with key players and contribute appreciably to the success of exciting businesses.

We are looking for consultants that have recognized certification related to their technical expertise. For example, if you are a Microsoft expert, you must have earned your Microsoft MCSE certificate. In the case of Cisco experts, show us your Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert or Cisco Certified Network Professional credential. For security, you should have you Certified Information Systems Security Professional, Certified Information Systems Auditor, Certified Information Security Manager, or one of the other leading security credentials. Of course, Progent is familiar with "paper experts". Nevertheless, the fact that a credential can not guarantee excellence is no justification for not owning one. If you know your stuff, then most of these certifications should be no challenge. The bottom line is that if you represent yourself to be an expert, then customers deserve to see certifications. Progent can promote your skills, but you should have basic credentials for Progent to market. In case you happen to be adamantly against the concept of certifications, we can sympathize with and honor your position, but you are likely not an appropriate fit.

Enhance Your Abilities with the Best Technology and
Joining a Great Group of Computer Engineers
Progent's company culture will allow you to become a more capable professional by improving your technical knowledge and increasing the satisfaction of your clients. Progent delivers on this commitment by recruiting the top professional talent for you to work with, offering a state-of-the-art network and communications architecture, running custom application utilities to enable the maximum level of service, and by optimizing proven operational models for attracting and keeping clients.

The most important factor that differentiates us from most consulting companies is the quality of our consultants. Among the scores of consulting experts who have teamed with Progent, we have assembled the best expertise covering a wide array of technologies. Be it Microsoft Windows, Cisco firewalls, corporate security, Apple, Linux, VMware, or other vital application, we deploy experts who can help you to be effective on larger projects by leveraging the aggregate experience of our team of professionals.

To promote the success of Progent's consultants, we invest heavily in providing the best tools to do the job properly. We will leverage technology to an extraordinary extent and our state-of-the-art virtual office environment allows effortless connectivity, cooperation, and knowledge exchange with other Progent team members — entirely from home-based or mobile offices. You don’t waste time or lose income with daily drives to a conventional office, and all driving you do for on-site customer jobs is based on your own schedule, not ours. The best benefit is that much of Progent's support work can be done remotely, offering maximum productivity for billable time. In practice, some Progent team members do remote consulting only.

Progent's operations are geared towards responding rapidly and efficiently to customer needs through information sharing and cooperative problem resolution. Even though Progent's consultants work with a great deal of independence, dispatching is centralized, customer issues and solutions are meticulously monitored, recorded, and organized for convenient reference, up-to-date engineer availability is published to streamline group tasks and simplify trouble escalation, and client approval is continually monitored. We reinforce the feeling of connection through periodic team meetings and regular company-wide events.

The majority of Progent's consultants are located throughout California, but Progent is building a rapidly expanding team of network experts throughout America. Progent's virtual office environment eliminates geographic boundaries that limit the efficiency of conventional business models. We enhance the package by offering a comprehensive employee care program to ensure the physical health and economic welfare of our team members and their families.

Not only do we have awesome consultants, our sales and operations groups match the high standards that defines Progent. These top-notch contributors to our growth are enabling us to target and sign up the 50-60 new clients we are currently engaging every month. We lately marked the delivery of services to our 1,000th customer. Try typing “Cisco consultants” or “Microsoft consultants” into Google to see for yourself why we are also a strong marketing organization.

Having a commitment to technical proficiency is a cornerstone for growth with Progent. A career in consulting will push you to learn more than you would in any other job in network technology. Being confronted by a steady series of network challenges is what keeps professional support exciting. Clients rely on consultants to perform the “hard stuff.” Creative tasks, leading-edge deployments, puzzling or entrenched issues, and tricky migrations are the basis for our services daily. At Progent, you will not stall or be pigeonholed, as is sadly typical for network engineers in traditional corporate jobs. You will awake every day excited about the opportunities ahead.

On the way, you will work with some great people, both by building strong customer relationships and by working closely with other Progent team members, where you will benefit from and add to their growth. Yes, technology is important, but Progent is a relationship-focused organization through and through. If you do not have strong people skills or enjoy cooperating with a diverse assortment of people, then we are in all likelihood a poor fit.

If all this sounds right for you, we invite you to contact us about our view of the future of information technology consulting.
