Lacking Direction

Pros

Pay is great and flexibility is a plus. Acquisition by Cisco helps bring new opportunities to the table.

Cons

Product is overly expensive and doesn't compete well in the market. Senior leadership lacks the ability to direct the teams the right way, They are all "too busy" to actually help their teams, They cannot paint a clear picture of a customer story which leaves the sellers just selling products rather than a vision. Partner strategy is a mess and sellers have no idea when to engage specific partners and the differences of SIs to VARs. Foundation of SI strategy needs a full revamp but they are too stuck to pivot. Legacy sales team that has a never fire mentality - great for protecting under performers.

Pros

- talented and capable colleagues, good bosses - as long as the work gets done, you have a lot of freedom regarding how you do your work, very flexible - good WLB, no RTO mandates (so far)

Cons

- personally perceived lack of clarity from leadership and management regarding the direction. AI seems to be the solution to every problem - increased bureaucracy and red tape, processes take longer, communication is not as good as it was before, and it feels more difficult to "just get stuff done" (the typical downsides of a big corporation) - personally perceived increase of office politics in higher management
