Pros

Good pay, benefits & employee discount.

Cons

Poor change management, lacking transparency from mgmt, knee-jerky org and process changes, increasing political angst x-dept/function, no longer leading the market but following, slowly. The radically changed culture of the last year or so is driving many good people away.

Pros

Down time, entertaining demos running on the systems while you work.... the biggest pro? that im leaving in the next month or so.

Cons

Good luck achieving your bonuses or getting a decent raise. Terrible management stacks up and covers each others backs at the expense of the guys/gals actually making the sales. No real chance of promotion and terrible pay for the industry.
