Pros

Compensation is decent right out of school Promotions are attainable if you are good and there are 0 politics involved If they like you they will try and help you as much as they can (which is expected)

Cons

The product is nearly imppossible to sell (I was hitting my quota on skill alone) The management is too young to understand how to really manage someone. Micro-Management is taken to the extreme here (counting doors hit, phone calls made, time allotted for tasks, morning meetings about ???) The company seems like a better fit for places that are not tech savvy, The overall solution they sell to customers does not work in the silicon valley because the package when bundled does not bring more value to the customer than 5 other solutions from other companies combined. Cannot be a VAR if you bring no value to your customer base. Heavy working hours that makes your REAL wage must less than it actually is.

Pros

It wouldn't allow me to put my actual last year (2012) but during my 2 year employment, I made great money. I made president's club both years and regular saw 7K checks with some topping 10K. I used to win nice watches, luxury sunglasses, skydiving trips, box seats at Lakers games, box seating at really cool concerts, etc.

Cons

LONG hours...I would arrive at 7am for the morning meeting. we would then have team meeting at 8am and we would hit the road at 9am. We wouldn't get back until 5:30-6:00pm BUT nobody complained because we were paid for it. Nobody cared what gas prices were because we were more than compensated (I forgot to mention Dom, the big boss, would but gas cards and hand those out just because you had a nice suit on. Dude was such a good leader....eveyone wanted to do good for Dom. Why? I/ couldn't explain it...ther than he knew how to lead and that involves getting people to buy into your plan. We did. And Dom had that division leading the company each and every month. Two of the best years of my career and it happened in the very beginning. I will always miss my time here. what a con. lol. it was a great job
