Pros

I was hired months ago in a technical capacity. I know there is a big sales side to this company, but I can't really comment on that environment myself being in the tech side. I came off of working at a very stressful IT environment (late calls, early morning emails, weekend crunch times) and this company is the opposite of that (thank god). I do like the people here and I appreciate the laid back atmosphere. Adequate time is given for projects, and so far, any time crunches I have been given have been balanced by other duties being cleared off my plate, so there really wasn't any stress involved; and I was actually given adequate time to complete the projects. I also like that the dress-code is relaxed. My direct supervisor has been extremely helpful and probably the biggest advantage is that I'm told to just get my work done and left to it. No micromanagement and crazy project managing or wacky deadlines. Any tools/software I've needed were extremely fast in being provided which was nice as i have a peeve working in environments without adequate tools.

Cons

I'm personally not the biggest fan of the open office concept at work here. The company is moving to a new building in about 2-3 months time and I have seen mock-ups and it looks nice so hopefully that will help. Right now my desk is in a cluster with 4 other people so it's a little loud sometimes. I have preferred in the past having my own office and that likely will never happen here regardless of stature within the company. The benefits are OK right now. They are just setting up a 401k but no matching right now and I had better health benefits at my last company. Supposedly this will improve in the future (and I think it will) due to company growth.

Well the good news is the new Dev (Tech) floor opened just today. It was designed by the Dev team so it meets every need. Also, we do have matching (and have had for the last couple of years) on the 401K and have added a great deal of amazing benefits. We move at hyperspeed and so do the addition of great benefits. Also don't forget to send us suggestions. We love to hear from you.

Pros

SaaS model security service that works and is in high demand by small and medium size businesses. A monthly quota that is attainable and a product that companies want.

Cons

We work from Monday - Friday from 9am - 6pm. I would prefer to work 8-5.

Pros

Great compensation plan, production bonuses and attainable targets that are made on a monthly basis resulting in company growth and personal pay increases. I have been in the software sales business for over 13 years and this is honestly the most laid back, yet productive and fun group to work with. As a Sales Rep I get plenty of leads and we are expanding at an incredible rate.

Cons

Currently space is getting a bit cramped with all the expansion that is happening, but we are moving into a new building which will have space for all.
