Pros

You can consider this job as a first step into a career in this industry, nothing more

Cons

Their culture belong to the 19th century, the office in Amsterdam is hugely sexist and dirty minded, if you're a female you will definitely have some problems there. The CEO is forcing people to vaccinate or leave the job, you can't work from home unless there's a lockdown while all other companies are allowing hybrid work. The market is getting smaller and the product they sell if very old fashioned and expensive and they still insist they are the best in the market when they can't accommodate any requests for their customers because they have such a basic product and don't add any updates or new technologies to their product offerings.

Pros

Free coffee and soda that's it.

Cons

Where do you even start. The company has no direction and the stock has dropped over $70 in a year. All the cutbacks that they make to cover losses come from reps compensation. You have to clock in and clock out everyday like you work in a candy factory and if you miss clocking in or clocking out they fire you. So many lazy people .They equip you with a laptop from 2017 that barely works and an iPhone SE from 2006. Most of the prospects block the numbers so cogent can't call . They have no one to sell to.
