Pros

1) Good first job to build your resume. 2) You get to participate in company trips as well as dinners in places like The Palm. 3) You get rewards such as gift cards and alcohol.

Cons

1) No HR department which makes no sense given the company is looking to hit 1000 employees. 2) Hostile work environment (drama, harassment, and so on). 3) Low pay, especially compared to most average sales position. 4) Lack of leadership with no clear direction. 5) Management asks everyone to make 150 CPMs (calls per minute) everyday even though cold calling takes a lot of effort and can drain a ton of energy especially if you have other responsibilities to handle. 6) CEO is a bit of a nut. 7) The parking issue continues to grow worse as the company continues to grow. 8) No commissions for deals you bring in.

Pros

4.5 years working at Carahsoft, I’ve seen and heard it all. Work from home, too many people take this for granted. They promote within! Plenty of opportunity to move up if you work hard and deserve obviously. Work hard, be proactive, take accountability, be reliable, consistent aka do your job and you aren’t micromanaged. If the above is done, they compensate you very nicely. Craig pays 50% of health insurance (not sure if this has changed for new hires) that is unheard of and extremely helpful. Insurance is great, never had any issues. Craig cares and does so much for his employees, way more than I think some people deserve and take for granted. Team Trip, 401k match, Shoe Day, Epic Bar Tab, Reggae Fest, milestone and birthday gift cards, Trophy Bottle, snack boxes, and more.

Cons

They hire kids right out of college with zero work ethic and work experience. They don’t fire people enough, you have a handful of top performers picking up the slack for their colleagues and carrying the team. 60+% of my pay is bonus which makes tax season daunting and stressful.
