Pros

LOOK AT THE REVIEWS WITH ONE LINERS AND SOME MISSPELLINGS!!!!!! Everyone is not writing this bad! They would have more to say than their title or something mundane in the Title and a one-liner! This company will take you on a ride you will never forget. You will meet and be mentally stimulated by some good people. That is all. If you are ever in the hot seat, you will be out there my yourself. Everyone CYAs and will turn away from you.

Cons

JEALOUS PEOPLE, MANAGEMENT, DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVES MOST DON'T WANT TO BE ACCOUNTABLE! They will lie, conjure, manipulate, and act like they are in elementary and junior high. It is amazing how smart people can be so stupid. If you need a psychological study on toxic, unhealthy, unproductive environments that keep their head above water with "creative" numbers reporting....this is the place for you. Why reimburse for gym memberships, mobile phone monthly bills so everyone can be on call, or any other "perk" if you are going to TAX IT AS INCOME!!! You have to enter the gym membership every month. Whatever you do, don't work at this place. Go somewhere else.

Pros

Medical Benefits are very good. Not a lot of micromanagement unless your leader doesnt understand the resources to pull this info. AI is highly encouraged, not required... which is a nice balance.

Cons

Random layoffs every couple months. Kate Johnson doesn't understand the importance of credibility in this space. Q1 customer meetings are majority introduction meetings due to constant account realignment. Leadership pretends to believe they know these are large enterprise accounts, but their actions reflect a transactional sales approach.
