Pros

Extremely large, non-integrated bag of solutions to sell, huge customer base, some solutions are very mature, if you can find them...there are MANY very intelligent people buried within the employee base

Cons

Huge % of unhappy or ignored customers across all solution silos, new senior management including new CEO come from Oracle/CA background, compensation and % of overachievers dropping steadily in new fiscal year, solution consultants not compensated on deals so they have no vested interest in going above and beyond, huge services quotas killing annual OTE

Pros

Sorry I cannot think of any.

Cons

Terrible leadership, zero focus on product innovation or integrating all the legacy products in the stack via acquisition, and the EIM thing is not a vision but a pipe dream that is totally divorced from the reality of the company's product portfolio. Halfway through this fiscal year, over 2/3 of the sales reps had sold less than $100K in total revenue and less than 10 reps were on pace to make quota. Yet somehow, the company keeps reporting earnings growth. Virtually every rep in the entire company is currently interviewing elsewhere.
