Pros

Management left enough room to execute the job and did not micro-manage the position. Expenses always paid on time.

Cons

Challenging internal sales environment and nine managers in five years left little room to develop healthy and longer-term team relationships. The management is heavily siloed. You are on your own if you are looking for career development that counts. You basically have to quit your job before applying for a different one within the same company.

Pros

They hardly ever fire anyone.

Cons

They hardly ever fire anyone. Comp plan is terrible. You get paid on Opportunities sources but there isn't any criteria written down on what makes a discovery call turn into an opportunity. Leading them to cherry-pick deals and choose if you get paid or not. They don't have product market fit. The entire new logo space didn't close anything last year. Getting placed in a good, high paying seat is all dependent upon nepotism. No clear path for growth. Constantly moving the goal post and changing promotion criteria. The promotion path leads you to a role that has historically not closed a deal and the role is a huge pay cut for some BDR's leading to high churn or career BDR's.
