Pros

* nice office location * competitive compensation package

Cons

* complete chaos in management - shifting direction 180 degrees every 6 months * culture in the office not as it used to be * unnecessary layoffs * life on promises: - promises of new product and expansion (instead there is a layoff) - promises of multisport for 2 years - promises of career growth and opportunities (instead you support legacy solutions)

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.
