Pros

Some decent people and some freedom to work remote.

Cons

The pay is terrible and the bonus structure is an absolute joke. There is no work-life balance as you are constantly being bombarded by emails from upper management, even on the weekends. You are essentially building the business for them as you are responsible for prospecting, sourcing, selling and even dealing with AR issues. This is the kind of place where co-workers can say “it’s not my job” and there is no accountability. Stay far away, I am warning you.

Pros

Excellent work-life balance, simple directives, and easy objectives. My superior managers were excellent to cooperate with and my team members were innovative.

Cons

Market management seemed detached from operational function. Certain individuals in management were incapable of communicating succinctly without offense.

Pros

The 401K and bonus benefits are nice, the office/campus is beautiful. Horizontal mobility is great, there are opportunities to move to other departments- but that can be tricky because one will also need to qualify for the new role.

Cons

The environment is equivalent to a high school, micromanagement from people who do not remotely have a management title (likely for job security), no sight of vertical mobility.
