Pros

- the package - the salary

Cons

everything else... it's really male dominated and there is a lot of passive aggressive sneaky bulling. They give promotions to whoever shouts the loudest. Although work life balance is good if people upset and offend you when you go home you are a miserable sod anyway.

Pros

-Great company -Team has talented, experienced account managers and product experts who know the territory well

Cons

West team management is heavy on micromanagement and sets unrealistic territory targets without rep input — high turnover, and long tenure in company seems to shield this manager from accountability and growth
