Pros

Some Nice co-workers and talented passionate people work there, a desire to change from the best people that work there

Cons

Being a hard worker isn't rewarded. Favoritism is a regular management tool. More concern over profits and release dates instead of the customer experience. The salaries and benefits are embarrassing. Managers use passive aggressive bullying techniques and don't understand the fundamentals in their fields. Good talented people are driven out by management

Pros

None really. Probably that it ended.

Cons

Interviewer showed up very late. Told me he was strapped for time and wanted to cut what should've been a 45min-1hr interview down to 20 minutes. Didn't make eye contact. Went completely on script for interview. Nothing about the interviewer screamed "leader", and I have no idea why he was even with the company. Couldn't answer my questions when it was time for me to ask.

Pros

Great environment with good flexibility overall. Company is growing, expanding and profitable. My office is very close to my home which makes it even better for me.

Cons

The compensation package continues to make changes for the worse. I've had years with very similar sales results and my comp package produced 25% less income with the same sales. Quotas (Goals) are unrealistic and therefore reps are penalized for not hitting goals which have sometimes been as high as an expectation of a 60% increase in sales from one year to the next.
