Pros

Good Pay if you ask for it. Good amount of PTO.

Cons

Management is ignorant of the solutions their teams manage. Everything is delegated, and management just expects you to work endless hours to accomplish ever more ridiculous goals. No matter how much OT you put it you will nagged endlessly about why everything wasn't done yesterday. Don't believe the recruiters, there is very little flexibility with working from home. They rarely promote from within, so new managers become nothing more than a fresh roadblock. You will be expected to give an opinion even when you don't have one, but your opinion will be ignored anyway. Absolutely no respect between departments; everyone thinks they know everything. Managers never miss an opportunity to go to "training" which consists of all expense paid vacations, and endless jokes about how they didn't understand any of the training. Training and certifications aren't encouraged at all. Career development is a foreign concept here. The office environment is "open air" which means you will never be able to concentrate, but are expected to become an expert overnight on whatever new, redundant solution they decide to buy. When the company perceives financial trouble they will steal your benefits before any other options are explored. They don't promote from within; they find ways to sneak around the hiring process so they don't have to give current employees a chance. They are also very committed to outsourcing. Basically, this is a paycheck until a better opportunity comes along.

Pros

Not much that I can think of, would say its decent pay but they move the goal posts on goals every year so once you get comfortable with your goals and achieving your target to them hitting the reset button and back to square one

Cons

The culture has shifted in a very negative direction. Top performers can still feel boxed in by limited growth opportunities, changing expectations, and compensation structures that do not always reflect actual performance. There is a heavy focus on control, office attendance, and short-term metrics, while trust and morale continue to decline. It can feel political, exhausting, and disconnected from the people actually driving results. Very toxic for capacity reps, they do everything wrong and contstantly are the whipping posts for commercial teams who are always in the right
