Pros

Mostly satisfied customers. Some very smart people. Thorough training.

Cons

Arrogance of management who think their product should sell itself. Leads to hostile work environment towards sales reps. Very high turnover. Mores reps walking out the back than coming in the front. Treat seasoned reps like college new hires. It's all Oracle. Fresh ideas and approaches to deals are not encouraged. Very low percentage of reps make club because the territories are microscopic.

Pros

Great culture at the peer to peer level. Excellent learning opportunities, good benefits and great name for resume.

Cons

Pretend to be transparent but a lot of smoke & mirrors. Significant cuts to comp plans & commissions that resulted in challenging pay cuts. While salaries were not reduced the OTE is no longer achievable and it’s a difference of thousands monthly, can’t even sell stock because it’s tanked. That being said, we’re disappointed in comp and stock but grateful to be employed because It’s no longer a matter of if you’ll be laid off but when.
