Pros

High paced sales environment that is challenging. Named brand recgonition and with growing market share Competitive Salary Growing partner base Motivated sales reps

Cons

Mid Management has little to no power and cannot make any real decisions Management's perceptions usually do not equate to reality although that is what our fearless leader seems to instill in his mid management. Promotions are rare and our commission structure is cleverly designed to allow you to make less money that what you actually sell.(single year bookings????) It's a joke. Poor benefits package Less flexibilty than other companies seem to have. Favoratism runs high in this department but I guess that's the same everywhere you go. However, some of the awards and promoitions are OBVIOUS products of favoritism and it seems if you want to get any where you have to kiss up hardcore, be a navy alumi, or come from IBM.
