Essential Duties & Responsibilities
Too many businesses struggle with unreliable technology that holds them back. At M&I, we believe that technology should help people succeed, not stand in the way.
That's why we focus so much on developing a team with strong, people-first values rather than a technology-first viewpoint.
We obsess over providing friendly, respectful support and clear, timely communication. We value true solutions over quick fixes, and value humble confidence rather than oversized egos. We value a culture of continuous learning and gratitude for peers and partners.
Technology Support doesn't have to be an exercise in frustration and confusion. With the right partner, it can help drive success.
We offer competitive salaries, great benefits, and learning / training opportunities while helping our exceptional list of clients and partners succeed. We'd love to have the opportunity to talk with you more about the opportunity to join a team that enhances productivity, clarifies growth planning, and provides respectful technology support from experts who care.
