Pros

Good, solid, well-intentioned people. They hire well. Great place to start your career when you're just out of school. The more senior folks are friendly and eager to share - there is a good sense of camaraderie. The staff genuinely care about the great work our customers do.

Cons

Sales compensation is below market. They don't seem to value experience as many senior sales members have left in the last year. Territories and quotas can be changed with no warning and limited explanation so it's very difficult to cultivate and develop relationships with customers. There is a new desire for a "consultative" relationship but the sales infrastructure, strategies, and messaging are overwhelmingly transaction focused. They are working on sales training, career paths, transforming into a "true Saas" company, but they have a long, long way to go.

Pros

Best place to work doesn't come hard for this company. The environment is simply amazing. Great culture, great benefits, compensation is comparable for the location, wonderful people, awesome cafeteria, excellent gym. One of the best places to work in South Carolina

Cons

Finding a career track was a little difficult. There were policy and procedures, theories and ideologies for providing optimal client services, but not one career track methodology to be found. It was almost like 'get in where you fit in" which I found to be an injustices considering the number of grads that were working there.
