Pros

Honestly the pros are a beautiful office at the water gardens, cool coworkers, and depending on how you look at it, management is so inexperienced and the CRM sucks so bad you could honestly just sit around and do nothing and no one would really know- nor do they really care. You'll continue to not make money but thats going to happen either way.

Kontras

Where to begin. 1- Promotions are based on who you know and if you like the same sports 2- Management has NO clue what theyre doing since theyre just 2-3 years into sales themselves. 3- Don't expect to make commission 100% not for the first year, you may make half your variable on year 2 and that's if your territory doesn't change. You must have a good territory, good field reps, good pillar reps or you will fail 4- Even if you do miraculously sell our crappy products to someone- dont expect to get paid for 6-12 months if ever. Oh and if you're magically promoted before your commissions come? Say bye to those as well. Even if you get a commission check- be careful because they'll claw it back 4 months later for no reason. 5- Even when a customer WANTS to buy? Good luck getting a quote drafted, that takes about 2 months alone. 6- Favoritism- it is blatantly obvious who the managers like and typically its the "cool guys" they want to be friends with. Even up to the VP level. 7- Sale Cycles are 6-9-18 months long and thats IF they dont change up your territory every 12 months. ALSO they laid off two whole hubs in June- no job security I used to love sales and working here has broken my spirit. I'm thousands of dollars in debt, can't afford to enjoy life, and I may finally make commissions on year 2 and I cant even afford to stay at the company and just HOPE i'll actually get paid them.

Very cushy at times, not super high pressure

Kontras

The actual software you're selling is low to mid tier software so hard to sell.

Pros

Every group/division can be different in how they treat their employees, but I'd say overall there is very good atmosphere of trust and fairness. There is a strong focus on education, and they reimburse for outside classes taken (Up to 5k/year I think). Benefits are good, and I'd say quite competitive in the market. Good 401K matching (they'll contribute a max of 3% of your 6% or greater). Free drinks in the breakroom. Flexibility to work from home at times. (If you live 50+ miles away from an office you can work full-time from home...policy).

Kontras

They don't try to make the workplace anything special (maybe a pool table and arcade game are cliche or gimmicky?). In the 10 years I've worked there, they've given 2 measly %1 cost of living raises (this is the same with most everyone I've spoken to, some don't get any raises). You will not get a substantial raise ever, unless you leave then get rehired on (they will not match offers, better to leave). New employees that you train will make 10 - 20K more than you several years after you hire on (not just me, they do this to all tenured employees). They will give these untrained, less experienced people higher titles (again this is done to everyone not just me). You learn pretty quickly that you're dispensable. The company has billions in cash and they don't re-invest in their employees, just in acquiring new companies and hiring new people that know nothing that you get to train.
