Pros

Have a solid firewall solution, Popular solution. Obviously people need cybersecurity these days. If you have a solid 2-3 year plan, you can make some great money.

Cons

Upper management is honestly horrible. They come down with half-baked directives constantly, They'll get some new big idea we need to be jazzed about, then move onto a new company, and wonder why we aren't hitting our numbers when our strategy is so short-sighted. Also, goals are extremely unnattainable in general, so I wouldn't plan on hitting 100% if you work in sales. It's probable you'll hit 30-50% of your goals the first 2-3 years so don't plan on making your entire salary. They have a very 'turn and burn,' expendable attitude toward their sales teams, don't like to promote internally. Many things get said that don't end up actually getting implemented, and the people that are actually hard workers are left holding the bag and receiving, in my opinion, an unfair level of compensation.
