Pros

If you love a steep hierarchy, little cross-team communication (among three chat systems), a vapid culture and negativity everywhere you look, SW is for you.

Cons

Low pay, expensive benefits, dysfunctional management, lack of basic organization skills, poor equipment to work with (unless you're upper management), too many meetings.

Poor management, no room for growth.

Pros

I’ve been able to surround myself by a phenomenal group of people!

Cons

Besides poor management, there was poor training. If you are passionate about sales and learning, this is not the right company for you. Their training is about two weeks long, there are no follow ups and your manager will not care about your personal growth in the job. It is a Sales job, and numbers do talk, which is fair. What’s not fair is having a manager who lacks integrity, an emotional intelligence. People deserve to be developed, more so if they’re new.
