To promote the productivity of Progent's team, we invest significantly in making available the most powerful tools to do the work efficiently. Progent will leverage technology to an impressive extent and our state-of-the-art virtual office infrastructure enables seamless connectivity, cooperation, and knowledge sharing with fellow Progent consultants — all from at-home or mobile offices. Consultants don't throw away time or lose revenue with daily commutes to a physical office, and all travel you do for on-site client jobs is determined by your own time table, not ours. The best benefit is that much of Progent's consulting services can be performed remotely, offering 100% efficiency for income-producing hours. In practice, some of our staff do remote consulting exclusively.

Progent's operations are geared towards responding quickly and efficiently to customer requirements through knowledge exchange and cooperative problem solving. Even though our engineers operate with a high level of freedom, resource allocation is centralized, customer problems and solutions are carefully monitored, recorded, and organized for convenient reference, current consultant schedules are broadcast to facilitate group tasks and enable problem escalation, and client satisfaction is continually monitored. We reinforce the feeling of cooperation through monthly team meetings and regular company-wide events.

Most of our consultants are located throughout California, however Progent is attracting a rapidly expanding group of consulting professionals from across the U.S. Our virtual office environment does away with regional boundaries that limit the productivity of conventional business models. We enhance the deal by providing a full benefit plan to promote the physical health and financial security of our team members and their relations.

Possessing a commitment to technical excellence is a key for success with Progent. A career in consulting will drive you to learn more than you would in any other job in information technology. Being exposed to a continual series of network challenges is what makes consulting exciting. Clients choose a consultant to perform the toughest jobs. Innovative projects, leading-edge deployments, puzzling or entrenched issues, and tricky upgrades are the foundation for what we do daily. At Progent, you will not stagnate or be narrowly defined, as is sadly typical for network professionals in ordinary corporate roles. You will wake up every morning excited about the challenges to come.

On the way, you will work with some wonderful folks, both by building close client relationships and by working closely with other Progent consultants, where you will learn from and add to their growth. Of course, technology is vital, but Progent is a relationship-focused company heart and soul. If you do not offer strong people skills or like working with a varied assortment of people, then we are in all likelihood not a good fit.

If all this seems good to you, we urge you to contact us about our view of the new paradigm of information technology consulting.
