Pros

- Free Lunch - Cool Product - Office is Fun - Great Yearly SKO

Cons

- Insane quotas with very small territory’s ($350,000+ per quarter as a low end MM2 Rep) - You could have 1200 accounts and be forced to sell 350,000 worth of security cameras every three months - PIPs are given out like candy - Hard to keep friends here because they all get fired around you - Managers receive top down pressure and places it on reps - Many reps have terrible anxiety and stress related issues (perceived as “normal”) - HUGE work related lawsuit just settled against us for $6B - Most of our competitors are significantly cheaper, making it tough to sell in low income patches - Blanket quotas across all patches, very unfair, some reps will have 5 times the amount of income/revenue in their patch - Reps who hit consistently praised with great patches - If you have a knowingly terrible patch, you are given 0 grace

Pros

Some of the people are kind, intelligent, and very thoughtful, which made the rest manageable when it unbearable Fancy perks: food, coffee bar

Cons

This is the worst company I have ever worked for. Inexperienced leadership and middle management creates an air of stress, anxiety, and frustration across all areas of the workplace. People often snap at each other, burn out, and successes are rarely recognized or celebrated. There is no sense of team unity. I even witnessed a monkey being brought into the office to be posed for photos during an end of quarter celebration. There is little flexibility for people not being in-office due to family/outside issues. There are too many meetings with no clear organization or purpose, and messages/emails are often sent late into the night, on holidays, and on weekends. I wish someone had warned me not to work here before I started, it was some of the worst days of my life.
