Pros

The team made the employment period worthwhile. Enjoyed the opportunities to learn more about various products through initiatives like lunch and learns.

Cons

What I found is the more you do, the more they expect out of you and you don't get recognition. There's a lack of communication and team spirit from the front to back.

Pros

Best company in the industry. Lots of sales opportunities and tons of internal support. I would not want to work for the competition.

Cons

with all the good things that come from working for a large company there are some bad things. Bureaucracy, slow moving, missed opportunities, competing priorities, etc. this company has them all.
