Pros

Decent salary, heard there is good insurance (not using it currently), if you like field sales/ driving/ talking to people that let you learn a lot and can be super fun, great sales training imo. Very fair promotions, not political, in my experience.

Cons

Nobody tells you hours are 7:30-5:00 and are strictly enforced. will support you even if you miss goals which is nice but to “do well” at this job is a TON of effort and time. In my opinion it is not sustainable long term (more than about 2 years). Pretty cool people to work with but overall company culture comes from Japan- no cool/ fun perks. Very basic vacation time and offices are similar to “the office” in that they have 0… pictures? Colors? Very cut and dry.

Industry leading hardware, promote from within.

Cons

Growing at a rapid pace, bonus structure changes every 6 months due to this.
