      A Really Great Job with Some Room for Improvement

      Inside channel account manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Realistic KPI and quota expectations, supportive team environment, quality inside engineer support, good compensation, effective work from home environment, they value work-life balance, great leadership that really cares about your career and your overall well-being.

      Cons

      little to no investment in continued sales education/training, product quality struggles, a sense of lacking direction or strategy as an inside sales organization and company as a whole. I value the effort in trying new things but sometimes it feels a little scatter-brained. No where to grow as an iCam other than a field position.

      Solid company with a very bright future

      Channel account manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      We have a lot of freedom to get the job done as we see fit. There is no micromanagement from the leadership team directly. We have a great reputation in the industry as a firewall leader in the SMB space. We recently rolled out a bunch of new and exciting products that are sure to positively impact sales in the near future. We have a lot of partnerships and employees that have lasted over 15 years so that is a testament to how much the company is doing right. Tons of training content available for partners and employees. Very technical resources at the top that can explain complex topics simply so anyone can understand.

      Cons

      Sales activity must be logged weekly to "ensure" everyone is staying active, and that detracts from our time to actually get more proactive activities done. Sometimes we spend more time cutting through internal red tape than should be necessary. Rolls and alignments seem to change every few months so it's hard to attribute positive or negative changes to one thing because we're always dealing with the third variable problem. I would appreciate more formal employee trainings rather than just weekly sales sprints, especially for fundamental technical knowledge.
