Feels more like a club than a company

Pros

One of the few jobs that prefers not prior experience so great way to get your foot in the door and make connections. The company is growing incredibly fast which is both a pro and a con. I have been there almost 4 years and have moved "up" fairly quickly. They give you lots of alcohol and take you over seas for a weekend if that's what floats your boat.

Cons

Because they only promote within and are growing so fast I would say 3 out of 4 managers is not ready or capable of leading but they were just their first. At least half of the managers should never be in charge of anyone. Ever. Coming from the military and a professional background I was very disappointed with the atmosphere. Zero professionalism. My pay is wrong about 1/3 of the time (always less) and they seem surprised every time it happens. Most star performers leave after a couple years and management acts like they betrayed them. God forbid you want to move on to another company in the industry... They will threaten to stop working with vendors and partners if they hire you.

Pros

It's a great first job to lead you into the working environment. There are cool benefits, such as gift cards and bottles of liquor, but the novelty doesn't last.

Cons

If you don't drink the Carahsoft kool-aid, you will not enjoy it. The salary isn't enough for the hours worked. The people are inappropriate. If you are not doing well at your job, rather than helping, management will ignore you until you want to leave.

Pros

Lots of room for growth; this is my first job out of college and i have advanced in my career more than most of my counterparts at other companies. I think this is because the company is constantly growing and taking on new business opportunties, Great atmosphere - you get to work with young professionals who are all energized and motivated. They are always creating fun incentive programs for hitting sales goals. Great managemnet style - all management operates under an open door policy. If i ever need help or advice on how to grow my sales pipeline i had a ton of resources who could walk me through step by step how to acheive whatever goal i was trying to hit. Additionally they have a great mentor program to ensure each rep is trained approprialtey and have everything they need to be sucessful.

Cons

This is truely a job where you get out of it what you put in. If you dont want to do the work you will be able to slide by but you may not get the advancement opportunties you are looking for later.
