Pros

Young, fun, collaborative work environment Lax dress code

Cons

There seems to be a growing disconnect between sales reps and upper management. Many of the new RVPs and the SVP of sales don't appear to have any prior sales experience, so it's tough for them to manage a sales organization effectively. Goals often seem to be dictated by fluctuations in the stock price, and not grounded in the struggles that sales reps are experiencing on a day to day basis.

Pros

Gaining experience targeting multiple industries

Cons

Management doesn’t care about you. Unrealistic goals. Everyone at 30-40% of quota. Complicated quota attainment system. Your job is to ask for 70% of margins for small businesses that have only 10-15% margin budgets
