      A prisoner of it potential

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      An incredible brand. An executive team with a deep talent bench that knows how to place its bets. Nothing wrong with the compensation especially in the good times! You learn to think like a winner.

      Cons

      Patchy governance in theaters outside US & Canada and Europe. Astonishingly weak HR for such a large company. Probably the worst and most inconsequential HR review process amongst its peers. Absolutely no accountability for sales management. If times are good the rising tide lifts all boats. If times are bad well bad times are blamed.

      Pros

      Ability to telecommute. Enthusiasm/passion by WebEx employees

      There are several old timers that are stuck in their ways and tunnel visioned.
