Pros

Some departments have a very flexible schedule. Atmosphere and dress code can be very relaxed. Some people are very friendly and become your friends for life. Great perks like free soda machine and campus social events left over from the "old days" i hear. Very pro networking. I think they have great benefits.

Cons

Depends on your specific departments but not very competitive salary, lack of growth opportunities, most people stay stuck in the same position their entire careers or plateau, stressful with high demand to perform high volume tasks with minimum staff, typically understaffed, very corporate leadership where all the money and work/life balance seems to be at the top and barely trickles down.

Pros

They hardly ever fire anyone.

Cons

They hardly ever fire anyone. Comp plan is terrible. You get paid on Opportunities sources but there isn't any criteria written down on what makes a discovery call turn into an opportunity. Leading them to cherry-pick deals and choose if you get paid or not. They don't have product market fit. The entire new logo space didn't close anything last year. Getting placed in a good, high paying seat is all dependent upon nepotism. No clear path for growth. Constantly moving the goal post and changing promotion criteria. The promotion path leads you to a role that has historically not closed a deal and the role is a huge pay cut for some BDR's leading to high churn or career BDR's.
