Pros

Love my teammates and will miss them the most when I leave.

Cons

There is constant retaliation going on with management and will block you when you try to move up within the company. I've been in the top 5% of sales reps and they keep raising your quota and changing compensation plan so you can't make any money. HR and the ethics committee do nothing but protect Elavon and they know about all of the unethical things going on. Then they will make your life hell afterwards. The add on annual fees to customers which is not disclosed to them. They do nothing to try to retain customers and send out equipment programmed wrong all the time. It is not a healthy environment to work in and they lose reps constantly. If you like to be micro managed and constantly criticized, then you will be happy here. I have 6 people on my team looking for new jobs out of 9. Also, you pay all expenses out of your own pocket. Including hotels and airline tickets with no reimbursement.

Pros

Strong environment for professional development and career growth. The organization provides ample opportunities to climb the ladder if you are proactive. I also believe the recent shift in leadership direction is a promising move toward the right future for the company.

Cons

The organization struggles with significant corporate bureaucracy and a siloed working environment, which leads to redundant projects and inefficient capital allocation. While the company pushes a 'total compensation' narrative, the liquid cash compensation and benefits packages—particularly health insurance flexibility—do not currently align with market standards. The lack of a cohesive product strategy remains a primary friction point for leadership.
