Pros

This job feels pretty stable compared to most sales jobs. You'll be surrounded by some really intelligent people and learn a ton. IBM has great benefits. If you stand out you can get promoted.

Cons

Pay is not that competitive. Forced In-Office Policy, Decent Amount of Micromanagement, High Pressure which trickles down from our Bloated Leadership Org when their Spreadsheets don't look good. Unrealistic Quotas, No Marketing Support at All. You'll spend most of your days in-office Cold Calling, Minimum Call, Meeting, and Opportunity KPI's, Do as I say not as I do style of Management. Not Uncommon for Leaders to Threaten Reps collectively. Difficult to get things done, tons of red tape and obstacles to closing deals.
