Pros

Pros are the history that this environment carries. I did not see any other pros.

Cons

No work life balance. Dirty office politics. They will pay employees high money because they don't trust their employees. Poor management threatens employees in the name of cost cutting so that they will not ask for anything else. A sense of status quo even when the market share is being lost. People are highly stressed out in their job which means the company culture is not good. They have people working in there for 10 -15 years and hence they lack the outlook of outside world. They don't hire inexperienced people and ask existing employees to check with family members and friends about what other organisations are doing. They hire contractors and treat them like second class citizens. Appraisals are sole discretion of Managers so they will raise pay for whomever they like. Management is very arrogant and won't listen to their shortcomings. And the list will go on.

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.
