Pros

Salary and pay is better than most companies. Compensated on total customer spend, not just net new sales.

Cons

Work/life balance Benefits are subpar compared to other technology companies Lack true customer obsession Treats employees as numbers on a balance sheet Meeting expectation’s is not good enough

Pros

-Endless opportunities for growth given the scale of the company -No one tells you that you can't work on a project -There is always hiring to do (which is great as a recruiter) -You're able to be a true partner to Hiring Manager's and the business as long as you stand up for yourself and have manager support -There is an endless amount of problems to solve. Most things are figured out, but there is a lot of room for improvement in pockets and some groups lag behind others

Cons

-Everything I wrote for the pros might be a thing of the past. I was impacted by lay-offs and all of my friends that remain with the company have no work to do and are in a very toxic environment at the moment -Your manager sort of makes or breaks your experience -You won't always get the help you ask for since everyone is so busy

Pros

Salaries and bonus comp was good, but not worth the stress.

Cons

Terrible middle management, Inept former Oracle leaders that monkey-wrenched the sales team to death by layoffs.
