Pros

Somewhat flexible work schedule, decent salary for similar companies / roles

Cons

Bad leadership (no management training so people with direct reports are micromanagers and cannot coach), most employees are not overly motivated (high sense of complacency), benefits are awful (healthcare coverage is terrible and maternity leave is basically non-existent)

Pros

- Highly talented individuals who genuinely care about each other. - Very flexible work model. Work from home once a week and as-needed. - Excellent compensation. - Recognition for hard work is built into the culture. - Great office space in downtown Minneapolis designed for hosting Target & Vendors.

Cons

- Vendor rep work can be demanding. You must have excellent prioritization, organization, and delegation skills to succeed. - Introverts not always recognized as frequently as extroverts. - Very explicit hierarchy. Account Executives receive more information and cascading of information is inconsistent from manager to manager. - Limited room for upward mobility. - Top-Heavy organization. The hiring of directors & VPs means fewer core roles being filled.
