Pros

If you want a great starting position in software sales then this is the place for you. As an inside sales associate, you will need to work hard qualifying leads into opportunities for 6 months to a year before you are promoted to the next level, which is faster than most companies and there are also open positions. The product is the best in the industry. None of our competitors can keep up with the technology. The technology grows with customer needs, and it happens fast. You're customer needs a fix for a problem? Our development team, depending on how complicated, will push it out in a week or two. The sales floor is lively and fun. The hardest workers will be able to achieve success and make good money doing it. There are complainers on the floor and it can ruin moral but it is short lived as they normally walk out the door. If your passionate about a strong product, it will come off in your calls and customers eat it up.

Cons

The outside sales teams don't close nearly enough revenue yet get paid double or triple. They also get paid on what their inside teams close, which means they can make good money doing nothing yet they constantly forecast their inside counter parts deals as their own. Outside sales also gets most (if not all) of the credit, even if the inside rep has closed a ton of business. Doesn't want to make you work harder.

Pros

Pay is good as well as benefits.

Cons

Poor organizational structure and lack of clarity: Roles, responsibilities, and reporting lines were confusing. This made collaboration and accountability very difficult. Nepotism and favoritism in leadership: Upper management heavily favored hiring and promoting people from their previous companies the "buddy system". Loyalty to personal networks appeared to matter more than competence or performance, which created cliques and made nonconnected employees feel like outsiders. Hypocritical company culture: Leadership frequently talked about "employee matters" values, strong culture, and employee well being, but in practice these were not reflected in actions. Layoffs, heavy workloads after staff reductions, and a focus on looking good on paper undermined any real trust. Frequent layoffs and job insecurity: Multiple rounds of layoffs created constant uncertainty. Remaining employees were expected to absorb significantly more work with fewer resources and little recognition or support. Heavy favoritism toward offshoring and lower cost international employees: Upper management strongly preferred hiring or retaining talent in countries with significantly lower cost of living because their lower salaries made departmental budgets and headcount metrics look better on paper. This resulted in U.S. based employees being disproportionately targeted in layoffs or overlooked for retention/promotion.
