Pros

Strictly benefits! Good medical & dental insurance. Also, 401k plan & stock purchase plan.

Cons

Typical corporate environment. The office I worked in was so poorly managed it was ridiculous. Nothing but favoritism going on. Half the office actually worked while the other half jerked around. So, if you are a hard working individual don't even waste your time here! You will wind up doing twice the amount of work to cover for all the slackers. Very poor morale in the office as well thanks to the poor management team.

Pros

People and the overall environment is a positive one. If you do your part, definite long term career potential. It’s not easy- but stable, growing. Worth serious consideration for early career looking for sales experience with a great training program. Also good for mid-career consideration if base salary isn’t the primary reason you are in sales.

Cons

Very fast pace that doesn’t suit everyone. If you are looking for easy or just a job to “hang out”, this probably isn’t the right spot for you.

Pros

Remote work is a plus. Collaboration from peers is more plus than minus. Documentation of business technology was great for the most part.

Cons

Worse holiday observance company I ever worked for. Pay is low for what is asked. Work/life balance was good until 2025. Mid-level leadership and above is not ideal. I had little guidance when I started so, especially from manager so had to figure things out with help of peers.
