Pros

Some individuals among mgt teams can really strive to make the workplace fun and motivating, casual corporate environment

Cons

Too many hoops to jump through every month just to keep your job. No other job opportunity in another department is presented to sales staff if you don't make your numbers, even if you've been there more than 10 years. Crazy! High stress...lack of communication or solidarity between different departments. Very isolationist culture outside of your own dept. Turnover in sales dept is off the chart.

Pros

Medical Benefits are very good. Not a lot of micromanagement unless your leader doesnt understand the resources to pull this info. AI is highly encouraged, not required... which is a nice balance.

Cons

Random layoffs every couple months. Kate Johnson doesn't understand the importance of credibility in this space. Q1 customer meetings are majority introduction meetings due to constant account realignment. Leadership pretends to believe they know these are large enterprise accounts, but their actions reflect a transactional sales approach.
