Pros

Good co-workers, product training, cafe in building, lots of bathrooms, SWAG from vendors

Cons

Quotas and metrics intentionally unobtainable so that commissions paid out are lower than industry standards (6% versus 12% or more elsewhere), constant revisions to pay structure and never to the employees benefit, poor health insurance coverage (10k deductible), Insight is funded by manufacturers in-house (HP, Lexmark, Adobe, Juniper, Lenovo, etc) and in turn forces employees to attend "training sessions" which provide no new information, yet takes away from sales time, which leads to not being able to makes sales and dials to achieve the quotas. Punished for a good sales month by given an even higher quotas the following quarter in ALL 5 categories (called "buckets").
