Pros

Great employee benefits and technology.

Cons

A lot of turnover with new employees. They are enticed with decent salaries and a sign on bonus of $9k. Looks attractive but you must generate your own leads. Slow sales cycle and commission structure is horrible for PECs. You don't get your full commission upfront. It's divided into equal payments for 1 year. The company recently implemented a mentor/mentee program. Your first 5 deals must be split with a mentor. Unrealistic expectations your first year (almost unattainable). This position is treated as a payroll sales position. Therefore, information entered into the CRM (SalesForce) is inaccurate and garbage. The weekly metrics are 5 FM (first meetings). To get off the radar folks enter bad leads into the CRM. Garbage in then garbage out. Get the picture?

Pros

These guys take care of their employees. Great benefits, time off, and compensation. Good company culture. Nice office, at least in Charlotte.

Cons

Super Corporate. Very large company with many different rules and regulations. Management lacks vision and overall structure. I have 3 bosses and none of them know what I do. Everyone is worked to -the-max. Most folks are overworked so service lacks

Pros

High Tech Products - Great Training

Cons

Existing employees - sales - received most or all of the 'good' leads - and ironically lost more deals than the new folks...the new sales people were highly compensated 'telemarketers' - also poor management - at that time...from what I understand they have made improvements recently.
