Pros

- great executive leadership who is accessible and best in class - superb sales training - best HCM/Financial software on the market - top notch / affordable benefits and RSU's are good

Cons

- premium cost of software - success depends on your territory and reps either make a ton of $ or live off of their base and vesting stock - there are some mediocre Regional Sales Directors and RVP's who can be difficult to work for at times - there are a few great Pre-Sales leaders and some terrible ones who are difficult to work with and make it hard to get deals done - culture is changing and sales leadership is driving towards micro-management
