Pros

Access to great concerts, some friendly co-workers. The AEs that have been there for years are excellent sales reps.

Cons

Very high school-like sales team. Priorities are in the wrong place. Most sale reps are more qualified for the managerial roles than the managers are. Every month (good or bad) there is the stress that we are "behind on budget" because the company is coming out of bankruptcy. Some managers are very into micromanaging. NO flexibility to work from home until you've been there at least a year (regardless of what they tell you in your interview). They have no exceptions to this rule, even if you medically need to work from home. There is no local HR, everything is out of Texas.

Pros

The team is very straightforward and helpful and they are willing to give you whatever tools necesary to win. One of the best teams I have ever worked with to be honestly.

Cons

Not many but you need to be flexible with hours as this is production work but that is industry standard.

Pros

The company had really good happy hours and events to attend. Food almost everyday.

Cons

Awful management team. Everyone will plot against you if they see potential. Very political culture and one boss there is a weak male figure in the office. If he doesn’t like you all the other managers follow suit. Mind you he has no power at all yet managers at his same level report to him. Must be experienced to work there really come in with a book of business with accounts that have lots of money because that’s all they care about. They will use and abuse you then cast you to the side make sure you have a second job to lean on. Frequent layoffs no managers of color either. Lots of red flags in the begging do not ignore them.
