Pros

Workmates are great and supportive.

Cons

Quotas are unrealistic. Some (not all) new RSDs are better players than coaches.

Pros

It was great before new CEO. Worked with great people.

Cons

Don't bother. More layoffs coming. Hard work not appreciated, def dont bother with working on weekends or late nights. Zero new skills gained for your next job, you will be unemployed and scrambling for months. Unless you get WD certification (=$$$)no one will care that you helped build the software. You will think you're so busy that they cannot be without you yet they will cut you without management input.
