Pros

Cool technology. Great products. Learning experience. Get tossed in the deep end.

Cons

Bureaucratic. Heavy. Its like working in an old school company but competing in the tech world. The financial systems are BROKEN. They can't tell us who we sold to. What we sold to them. There's too much manual book entry. While on the same time we're getting beaten up for weekly targets

Pros

The company used to care about customers, but they removed all the sales people who actually visited and consulted with customers to save travel cost.

Cons

The company's newest CEO, Patrick, only cares about getting back to a Cybersecurity company as fast as possible. Can't sell the company fast enough, but buyers can't get past due diligence periods.
