Pros

Building an interesting enterprise softwareproduct with interesting technology. Contact with consultants who try to build solutions at site, thus you can participate in design of future proof solutions.

Cons

Software development is nearly complete outsourced to India. According management India team gets always right, so it is not possible to work in a honest, open and constructive environment.

Pros

They hardly ever fire anyone.

Cons

They hardly ever fire anyone. Comp plan is terrible. You get paid on Opportunities sources but there isn't any criteria written down on what makes a discovery call turn into an opportunity. Leading them to cherry-pick deals and choose if you get paid or not. They don't have product market fit. The entire new logo space didn't close anything last year. Getting placed in a good, high paying seat is all dependent upon nepotism. No clear path for growth. Constantly moving the goal post and changing promotion criteria. The promotion path leads you to a role that has historically not closed a deal and the role is a huge pay cut for some BDR's leading to high churn or career BDR's.
