      Pros

      Everything runs incredibly smoothly for a company this size. As a Sales Engineer I have a huge amount of freedom on the clients I choose, the pace I work, and the way I interact with my customers. You are basically your own music store with an incredibly company to back you up with all the resources they offer to employees and their customers. If you are looking for your dream job and love talking about gear, look no further.

      Cons

      There is very little that I can complain about but one of the things that is unfortunate is that as a new employee you really need to put in the hours in the first several years to build to success. For some it comes easy, for others not so much.

      Pros

      Great corporate culture. Highly compensated sales force. I am not sure where Glassdoor gets it's Salary figures, but there are likely almost 100 individuals in the six figure income category

      Cons

      I have been here so long that I am hard pressed to think of anything that needs to be addressed. Sales is a dynamic occupation. That is both a pro or a con on any given day.

      Industry Leading Pay, Most Advanced Systems, Truly Inspiring Company Culture From The Top Down

      Cons

      It is definitely hard work. To be truly successful you need to immerse yourself in the industry and job.
