Pros

Compensation is decent right out of school Promotions are attainable if you are good and there are 0 politics involved If they like you they will try and help you as much as they can (which is expected)

Cons

The product is nearly imppossible to sell (I was hitting my quota on skill alone) The management is too young to understand how to really manage someone. Micro-Management is taken to the extreme here (counting doors hit, phone calls made, time allotted for tasks, morning meetings about ???) The company seems like a better fit for places that are not tech savvy, The overall solution they sell to customers does not work in the silicon valley because the package when bundled does not bring more value to the customer than 5 other solutions from other companies combined. Cannot be a VAR if you bring no value to your customer base. Heavy working hours that makes your REAL wage must less than it actually is.

Pros

One of the best training programs in the industry, help to educate about technology and create a sales foundation that successful reps will utilize and grow upon for the rest of their sales career (cold calling, teleprospecting, sales model and overall approach)

Cons

High energy right out of college "party" atmosphere, young managers that micromanage, life-work imbalance, "do what it takes to get the deal" tactics
