Pros

Good products and good technology

Cons

The sales manager tends to micromanage extensively, showing little trust in the team or individual and often assigning tasks that do not contribute to improving sales performance. His leadership style can feel disconnected from reality and he has been known to make inappropriate comments. There appears to be no effective HR oversight in place to address the issues. I would not recommend pursuing employment under him.

Pros

Nice colleagues. Fun products to sell.

Cons

No stock, you get the sale but can't ship on time. Things move very slow. Antiquated software. Things go unresolved and projects never get completed. The salaries seem on average 20% below market but they tell you otherwise. I think everyone there is looking for something else. They are getting more strict and taking some of the few perks away.
