Pros

I have been working for Softchoice for 5 months now, and it keeping getting better! I was offered the opportunity to work for Softchoice in Mid-March. This meant moving from a small town in Michigan, living in a hotel for 4 weeks for training in Toronto and then moving to Chicago. Big decision, right? Softchoice did an exceptional job of making the decision as simple as possible. For one, the benefits whether health or financial are great. But a huge reason was the culture. At Softchoice, the culture is something that other organizations should emulate. I’ve never been in a work environment where people generally care for one another. Where you aren’t nervous to ask a question in fear of looking ridiculous. Whether you’re the lowest on the totem pole or the manager at the office, everyone treats you with respect. Not to mention the fun events that we’re privileged to attend. I strongly suggest giving Softchoice a chance if you are looking for a career that lets you grow in an ever expanding industry. Spread the Orange!

Pros

The People -- I've met some of my BEST friends here. The training -- I had no background in technology or prospecting sales and I was trained quickly and supported throughout the onboarding process. There are a lot of brilliant people to lean on who are the tech experts. Career Growth -- They hire mostly from within so there are a lot of opportunities (management, sales promotions, or technical). Super fun working environment -- I laugh a lot at work! Plus, there are a lot of events that raise money for great causes and are fun to attend. Compensation -- If you exceed sales quotas, there is a lot of money, trips, etc. up for grabs. I have been very happy with my salary and have a family to support.

Cons

It's a highly metriced work environment, which was new for me. I adapted well since I like leaderboards and recognition but I understand that is not for everybody.
