Pros

Great Income potential, Fantastic Training

Cons

In order to begin you must list 200 known contacts (as potential customers), and then break the list progressively downward until you have 10 possibilities for initial prospects. This is where the problem lies, I feel this infringes on your personal friendships and family in order to establish yourself professionally. Can create a rift in friendships and contacts.

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 Can be a comfortable landing spot if you're able to tune out the outdated processes and legacy mindset.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.
