Pros
Product capabilities and engineering support allow sales to go into every meeting knowing that they can win any competitive bake-off. Strong ties with both VMware and Microsoft allow Shavlik to have a very a wide customer-base. R&D team is dedicated and always looking to improve the product. Fairly reliable job security as long as you come close to your Quotas.
Cons
Personal Growth usually takes the back-burner to very high Quarterly Quotas (40% increases year to year). If you make your Quarterly numbers, there is a good chance your Annual Quota could be revised to show a substantial increase in the middle of the year. Executive leadership can appear somewhat powerless at times due to being a subsidiary of a larger company and our company marching orders are not up for debate.
