Pros

Connection is a great place for those that are serious about a sales career or looking to make a difference as a sales leader. The territory is large, potential is endless, but you have to want to work for your success because it does not get handed to you at Connection. I have the privilege of working with very talented and hard working individuals that provide me with excitement and challenges that I need to feel satisfied with my job. I also think Connection supports work life balance, I've always felt supported in the things I have going on outside of work and have never felt guilty about taking the time I need.

Cons

At the moment, there are a couple system transitions that are causing some challenges, but they are improving and I feel they will be relatively short-lived. Connection is a very process heavy with many of those processes reliant on email which can be hard to manage if you are not organized. New processes, organizational announcements, etc...mostly come through via email so you have to read your email at Connection to keep up!

Pros

Been at connection for around 3 months and I have been really enjoying my time here. 1. May depend on the department but I got a great manager which is probably why I am really enjoying my time here right from the start 2. I have had the opportunity to work with very smart and motivated people, which makes work more fun 3. Mostly, people here are nice and are trying to help 4. Pretty casual culture, the focus is on value add rather than anything else, flexible (WFH and stuff, no issues on that) 5. Work is very interesting, never a dull moment, company is focused on growth and improving current processes which has the right amount of challenge to learn new things and grow while making the process fun 6. The cafeteria makes some great foods (Pad Thai has been on point) + occasional ice cream trucks 7. Pretty standard benefits, good vacation and sick time though 8. Work-life balance

Cons

1. Tools and technology used are dated, could just be me, I have a low tolerance for slow tech 2. Siloed departments and business units, communication and cross-functional efforts seem to take time 3. Ice cream trucks have been just occasional :( need those more regularly
