Pros

The benefits and compensation are competitive. The product portfolio is overall strong.

Cons

Expectations are unrealistic which hurts my income and moral. Also seems to be favoritism by management. One example is that they started a work from home program but are only allowing it to certain reps. They say there is criteria to meet but they've allowed several reps to be a part of the program that did not meet this criteria. They've also hired reps full time that never have to report to the office while those who have been here for years and even won several awards do not get this benefit. We get weekly reviews with our manager which can also add to the stress level.

Thank you for your feedback. In 2017, we piloted a work-from-home program with a select group of high-performing Inside Account Executives. Also, we offered the option to a small number of colleagues who were facing difficult personal circumstances. Based on the pilot’s success, in 2018, we have implemented the program for all account executives. In fact, now more than 50% of our account executives are already working from home. – Samir Joglekar, EVP, Sales and Services

Kinda Sad

Pros

This used to be a great company with a great product. Nice people still work here.

Cons

The company has adopted new tooling that has only made the product worse. It's motto is that, "We're here for the teachers," but they're not. They're here for the Vulcan investors bottom line, but I don't think it's going to turn out that way. It's really sad. Plus the pay is lousy, unless you're on the leadersgip team. I'm looking for new employment.

Struggle to produce good work with the limitations imposed by the system.

Pros

The company always pays wages on time. Paid time off is excellent. Retirement matching is very good.

Cons

Though the management tries to balance the workload they are rarely successful. The tools developed for our professional use are inadequate and wasteful. Micro-management is often difficult to deal with. Opportunities are few and far between, especially when the advancement positions are eliminated. Recent career advancement strategies offer no improvement, just a relabel.
