Pros

No longer exists. Any positive reviews you see on here are fake, as Irina and Sasha are forcing employees to write them. Literally, as in shouting at people in group meetings about writing five star reviews.

Cons

Save yourselves! Avoid CB at all costs. Irina and Sasha have cut the compensation and multiplied the sales quota by 5X. The remaining talented sales people in Key Accounts are all currently seeking other employment and will be gone in 60-90 days. Any current and upcoming renewals will be a revenue blood bath. There is tumbleweed blowing in the hallways of CB.

Pros

This gets 2 stars for the greatness that it was years ago, but in 2018 times, it would be 1 only. Years ago, CB was the best place to get your feet wet and foot-in-the-door at a company. Great training, benefits, wellness, PTO, promotion path, outings, and fun! You were able to grow, work hard, and promote yourself, and the benefits would follow. Now that is all gone, and I really don't know what "pros" are left. maybe some of the best coworkers and people that I've had the pleasure of knowing and working with, but that's it.

Cons

This list is going to be insanely long but here goes... -jerks in management -products not working -no one caring about anything, including the major attrition and people leaving in droves -no more 401k match, wellness, or really any other benefits besides health insurance. -no travel or fun expenses (which is what made CB so great before) -Irina in, Ferguson out .... it's an overall incredibly depressing place to be. I'm very happy to be out.

Pros

Whatever pros that existed are now gone.

Cons

Worst company ever. When I started in 2014 the company was amazing. Great culture, great leadership, etc. Fast forward to 2017 and it was all gone. Same people running the company but they managed to destroy everything good about it. This is evident by the number of lawsuits currently against them for sexual harassment, sexual discrimination etc. Mass firings (and not the people that should've been fired) made the environment one filled with fear. Also, if you weren't f*cking your manager/director there was no chance you'd get promoted. STAY AWAY FROM THIS SINKING SHIP. I don't wish anything bad for the few friends I still have there but if they're smart, they should get out ASAP. Other than that, good riddance to a terrible, heartless, frat boy company. Not to mention that this company couldn't care less about the clients they serve.
