Pros

- You get to keep your commissions from sales even after leaving the company. - Other than quotas, you're free to structure your approach to handling sales.

Cons

- Management is constantly worried about underperformance at an office-wide level, leading to constant pressure. - Less experienced reps are sometimes singled out for underperformance, despite having less time to build a sales pipeline. - Very little opportunity to use other skills, such as portfolio management, market analysis. Solutions are usually just pre-packaged insurance plans.

Pros

• Decent benefits • Some good individual contributors and colleagues.

Cons

• Extremely high workload — regularly expected to work 60-80+ hours per week • Constant scope changes with unrealistic expectations and impossible deadlines • Upper management was disconnected and showed little concern for employee well-being • Highly political environment where internal politics often outweighed actual performance • Mass layoffs that eliminated roughly half the engineering team, followed by offshoring many roles to India — even after many of us had dedicated 4+ years to the company • Extremely stressful and unsustainable culture leading to widespread burnout
