Pros

Great people to work with, they get you motivated to provide IT buyers the best solutions, and find creative ways to win you the business. Tons of training that are applicable to your job and they do a decent job of helping you remember the right vendors for certain clients.

Cons

I abhor the legacy CRM and order processing. So much complexity in getting orders out the door. Operations don't have a sense of urgency to get orders processed in a timely fashion as well as invoicing so if you're depending on orders to invoice to help reach your goal, good luck.

Pros

You are essentially running your own business, with a massive amount of resources and information at your fingertips. Independence, free will to work as best fits for you, growth potential and you can change roles fairly seamlessly - they want to retain good employees. Leadership is good & honest but they do harp on some old fashioned thoughts. It’s an emotional rollercoaster and finding business is extremely hard. This job is not for the faint hearted and you will be miserable if you don’t come in with a positive attitude and massive drive to succeed. Management is excellent. Transparency is excellent. Our customers love our customer service & vendors always have positive things to say. Big enough to be a large scale company but still treated as a mom and pop shop - it’s perfect culture for everyone involved.

Cons

Systems are very outdated (though they are fixing that). The new hire coaching program is horrible & does not set employees up for success - just do away with it. The processes make everything slow and seemingly impossible.
