Very sneaky

Pros

The ability to work from home. Some of the co-workers are cool.

Cons

Many of the managers are unqualified to do their job. They are promoted based on time at the company, not ability. There's no point in reporting bad managers because they will figure out how to turn it back on you. Walk right past them to a better company

Pros

Had some good products to sell. Comp plan for sales was good.

Cons

Seems more like a political gathering of like minds then a business. Executive leadership is weak. Lots of turnover at that level. Poor integration of acquisitions. Plans to go public flopped.
