Pros

Hybrid position, Job security, Good benefits. Not busy year round, mainly only at quarter ends.

Cons

Pay is not equivalent to the workload. Management does not value employees, only two out of four can actually help you if you are stuck with an issue. They always expect you to do more and do not pay you more. Their reward for your hard work is not a good raise, rather more work. I feel like there is favoritism toward certain SOSs in the department. They promote and pay more to people who are playing the corporate game correctly. Extremely stressful during quarter ends. Always busy near holidays. Can never take a Christmas vacation. Lots of blackout days on their black out calendar. The job description does not match all of the responsibilities and expectations.

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.
