Why We are Different We've crossed the phase where MSPs typically stall, we're scaling upward, not sideways Senior leadership investment is long-term (security maturity, automation, compliance) We scope before we assign and you won't wake up to mystery Friday cutovers Security-first approach vs. “keep the lights on” MSP model Compensation & Benefits $115K - $130K 401(k) with match Medical, dental, vision HSA options Life insurance Paid time off Professional development + certification investment
