Pros

Pros are that there are other sales jobs in Cork that will pay as much if not more. There is life after SW regardless of what the management team in here may tell you

Cons

Where do I start; -The pressure is there to crush you into submission and make you feel as if you don't give everything you got then your job is gone. It's relentless -The strategy/model is laughable, hey try this product we'll give you 50% off and if you don't buy we won't honour the discount... Note to end users and resellers. They will honour the discount every time. This is the Strelo model and it's failed. -There is a culture of firing people under the bus whenever things go wrong. This has led to some really decent, hard working reps, managers and directors being fired. I could go on but I'm starting to get annoyed -Just do yourself a favour and stay away from this place.

Pros

Covered parking, nice view, handy stairs.

Cons

Industrial Revolution management style, seriously abusive micromanagers, deceitful with bonuses, revolving door. Buy a company, change the logo, call it ours. Company recognition is mostly from 2010 and 2011. The pitch video is over two years old. These are a long time ago for the software business.
