Pros

- good base salary - good overall comp plan when the market is not flooded with representatives (~60% achievement rate for Canada overall) - well oiled marketing : very mature and excellent marketing development and delivery (well funded). - above average benefits - good potential for those with good territories.

Cons

- Extremely stale leadership (esp in Canada) with total absence of people skills, and management skills beyond the spreadsheet. - Poor corporate culture : extremely aggressive and cut throat amongst peers, thereby offering very little team cohesiveness. - Complete absence of training for new hires, save for endless hours of videos, with no opportunity to interact. -High turnover of senior sales mgmt in Canada (with 2 different country managers in the last 3 years). - Little or no support from managers, who have limited knowledge of systems and often internal processes -Pervasive belligerent relationships with partners, driven by poor program mgmt,, greed, and pure arrogance.

Pros

Remote work culture Is excellent, innovative tech, company's growth and opportunities to protect clients. Felt fortunate to have worked for this organization that has a strong growth tragectoruy and protects clients.

Cons

Manager/Director level: Poor communication from team manager/director, with little to no direction and the lack of team morale. Team members were on their own after training and most meetings could've been an email. The presence of the director was the equivalent of a virtual bulletin board. No ownership was taken from management to lead or guide the team and no sense of loyalty exists between management and team members. Good talent was squandered due to complacency and lack of direction. Company: Con for the company is the unfortunate lay offs that happened after leaving the company. It's a shame they laid off veterans from my former team. The writing on the wall was apparent, from outsourced new hires to the non-competitive compensation for newer hires. The company went from a fun and competitive start up to a disconnected company trying to emulate tech industry trends and "balances the budget" AKA lay offs, to look good to share holders. For a company that nets huge profits year after year, layoffs shouldn't be part of the reality.
