Pros
The brand is highly regarded by other companies and recruiters.
Kontras
The three Ts of sales (Territory, Timing and Talent) are what makes or breaks you. Territories are remarkably unfair cut. Do not get fouled the majority of reps will never! make their target and thats not due to a lack of trying. (Amsterdam is an expensive city if you live of your base salary...). Timing becomes a gamble due to very long sales circles. Talent can’t overcome the bad territories and bad timing. Moreover the company change the compensation plan, to their favor within an ongoing fiscal!! Meaning you got less for your deals than agreed on before... Within 2 years the new department was started and closed. All 40 employees who were recruited from Germany lost their job. The office was transferred 4! times during this period. The company is claiming to produce state of the art IT, but runs itself on 80s corporate IT. Tools are even crashing on their own! Java products. In general internal process make up a the lion share of your task. Talk about selling internally rather than to external. Career improvement is difficult because your manager will change every year, which means starting from scratch. It is a difficult place that will you leave cynical and emotionally drained.
