Pros

Young company with investment being made into the product

Cons

No direction from management, mainly as ALL the middle managers are incompetent, clueless about the industry they are selling into and inexperienced in selling information, most have come from the same company selling conferences previously. The others are overpaid "old friends" with big egos and nothing to contribute strategically. Main jobs are split by a small group of friends who have driven out any decent sales people. Upper management seems clueless in stopping the rot. Despite being told otherwise year on year performance has declined. A recruiter who lies to prospective hires in earshot of current employees. If you go there for an interview, just ask the manager how long he has worked there, and how many people he manages? You will hear LIES LIES LIES - just double check their linkedin profiles.

Pros

Located in a nice area of Manhattan. Nice places to eat when you take your breaks. You can dress casually on certain days.

Cons

Horrific Management. Poor to no sales training. Management will talk about you behind your back with their "favorites" and belittle you. No management support because they cannot sell. The management shouldn't even be in sales at all... The whole senior staff and most of the employees are just one big joke!
