Pros

Lots of free time, lax sales quotas, and a handful of incredible people scattered throughout the organization.

Cons

Culture ranges from nonexistent to very poor. I constantly felt like I was on an island; management made me feel cut off from their incredibly valuable technical resources, and I was not able to brainstorm, strategize, or develop relationships with any of the sales engineers. Management, at times, seemed to care far more about the number of cold calls I made in a week than the opportunities I sourced. Recruiters said there would be sales leads coming in, yet I never received a single one in 3 years of working there. Virtually no growth path. Atrocious Salesforce hygiene. No professional development opportunities. No emphasis on actions to improve culture or any DE&I groups to join. Their product training and communication of new features were highly lacking. I continuously requested training, yet management took no action to provide this. Reps are able to stay on board with high base salaries for years without producing anything. Others were heavily micromanaged. Your experience was very dependent on who your manager was. Benefits appeared to be standard/decent, but a lot of the PTO did not roll over, maternity leave was far below average, and there was no 401k match.

Pros

Exposure to complex client environments

Cons

Leadership communication can feel dismissive and inconsistently supportive. There are concerns around fairness in how opportunities and expectations are applied, with perceived favoritism in certain areas. Career growth is unclear, with limited visibility into progression paths. Open communication can feel discouraged, which impacts transparency and feedback. The environment can feel siloed, with uneven alignment across teams and at times a competitive or fragmented dynamic rather than consistent collaboration. The role was originally presented as remote, but this changed abruptly to a mandatory in-office requirement with very short notice. This created significant challenges for employees who had been hired under remote expectations or who were not based close to the office. After this change, there was increased emphasis on monitoring in-office attendance (e.g., badge/fob tracking) rather than focusing on output or work quality. This contributed to a perception of surveillance over trust-based performance management. In-office attendance was also perceived to be linked to performance outcomes such as bonuses or job security, which increased pressure during the transition. Escalation and issue resolution processes often felt focused on assigning blame rather than resolving root causes, making it harder to raise issues or get support. Work expectations frequently extended beyond standard working hours, impacting work-life balance and creating an expectation of constant availability.
