Pros
Idera/ BBS - they pay a fair base salary and the new office is in a nice location.
Cons
90% of sales managers have no management experience and have no business being a manager. Marketing department works against the sales department instead of supporting their number one customer( sales brings in reveunue). Territories are not evenly distributed and you have to know the right person or be lucky to get a decent territory. It is micro- managed, they keep track of the numbe of calls, to every other single thing including calls minutes. Most of the sales reps. are lazy and the one that get by either kiss up to HR or someone in management to get a good territory. Market is saturated and product is overpriced. New VP of Sales is trying to turn idera into a mini- BMC!! and Director of Sales does absolutely nothing, just as 90% of the sales managers there. HR Director gossips about employees and goes to Happy Hour with a couple of sales managers. Would Not Recommed it. Oh , now they have hired college graduates with no sales experience to work on the same level as experienced account managers. Also , they are trying to sell the company and there was never any room for growth there, esp now.
