Pros
Technology is well developed and respected in the marketplace MSTR skills and knowledge are in demand Most other employees are fairly sharp Michael Saylor has a strong vision for the company's direction and they are investing heavily in the technology, staffing, and training
Cons
Poor communication from middle management - You will often have little or no insight toward your schedule or projects in the pipeline Most levels of managment are sales oriented, most have little/no experience with the software,BI, or project management Have to push for raises/promotions (Promotions to management from field consulting is almost non-existant) Projects are often poorly scoped and detailed Social apps push is confusing ...where is the push for agile BI to compete with Qlikview/Tableau/etc....?
