      Pros

      Keeping in mind that it is a sales position, the current setup for the Michigan office is one of an upward trajectory, led by all levels of management. They train well, bringing in and utilizing lots of resources, and they themselves have been successful in the career, so they know what it takes. Hard work, but they will put in equal amounts of hard work into you. Earnings are basically unlimited (dependent on individual sales), with generous bonus structure. Benefits are great, including 401k, pension, health, dental, among much more.

      Cons

      Pay is commission only. While they put money into a "pool" to make sure you get paychecks over a period of time, it is all dependent on actual production, with no base salary. Not necessarily a con, but not for everyone. Again, not necessarily a con, but at least at the beginning, requires more than a typical 9-5 schedule. Make your own schedule, which has its benefits, but must be structured, and often requires work into the evenings as you work to build up your book of business (though not necessarily required).

      Pros

      Solid benefits package, manageable workload. Can be a comfortable landing spot if you're able to tune out the outdated processes and legacy mindset.

      Cons

      The company undergoes frequent restructuring, and technical leadership often lacks the depth needed to guide modern engineering decisions. The culture can feel rooted in an older, more traditional mindset, and promising initiatives frequently get stuck in POC hell rather than reaching production. Career progression is also very manager-dependent; the wrong reporting relationship can significantly stall your growth. Overall technical bar is low — if you're trying to sharpen your skills, this environment may hold you back rather than push you forward.
