Introduction to file shares and server connection
Connection to the file share will allow you access client files and provide a space for you to store data securely. Files placed on the file share are backed up and produce previous versions of files.
Cosmos
This drive contains two primary directories and two directories for Barkley employees:
- Department — contains a public and private folder for each department. The private folder is visible only to members of the department. Nonmembers will see only the public folder (e.g., AccountingPublic). Department members will see both the public and private folders (e.g., Accounting and AccountingPublic). Public folders can be seen by everyone, so be cognizant of which folder you drag-drop, copy and save items to. Public folders are the source of everybody’s knowledge.
- Client— All client work will be on this server. Creative, Account, Strategy, etc.
- WeShare — belongs to everyone. This folder is a shared public space used for sharing files or folders with other partners. There are two important aspects to be aware of. 1) This drive is wiped clean at the end of every month, and 2) It is not secure. Files here can be accessed by anyone, so be sure not to store confidential information here.
- Home — is your personal storage location. This folder can be accessed only by the owner. Instead of storing files locally on your desktop, use this folder to store up to 10GB of your files and folders. Files stored here are backed up and kept safe. If the files you are working on are client related, store them in their respective Client folder. That will keep all client-related work with the client, and will also keep you from exceeding the 10GB limit.
Note: Access to specific folders can be requested by contacting the HelpDesk. If you are an employee of our Pittsburgh or Denver office there are specific shares to your office and teams. See below for the mappings of these drives
Pittsburgh: smb://crosby
Denver: smb://falconheavy

Company Phone
It is required for all Barkley partners to conduct business on a Barkley issued device. At no time will work be conducted on a device not issued by Barkley.
If you would like to keep your phone number and transfer your line over to Barkley, please complete the 2 required actions then fill the form located at the link below.
1. Contact your wireless carrier and make sure any leases/contracts for your line are completely bought out or paid for. You cannot have any remaining charges/balances or an active lease, or a contract on your specific phone number when switching to Barkley.
Alternatively, you can start a new line/phone# with Barkley and have two phones.
2. If your line is with a carrier that is not Verizon, we will do everything in order to get your line ported to our account. If you are with Verizon, further steps will be required in order to release your line from your Verizon account. Please see Scott Mitchell for further information.
If you are not wanting to port your line we will provide you a device that we have in stock currently as your primary work phone. You can still fill out the Cell Phone Request Form but just be aware if that device is not available we will provide you the next available item in our stock of phones.
If you have any questions regarding the Barkley mobile device policy or have any issues with your phone request please email servicedesk@barkleyus.com and we will respond to you as quick as possible.
