Pros

Only pro really is a paycheck but one cannot really list that as a pro since all places provide a paycheck and overall coalfire's is lame in comparison.

Cons

Not enough space here to list out the cons. Here's just a few - If you're over 30, forget it, you won't fit in. Working 60 hours a week is the norm, don't come in expecting to have a life. As mentioned previously, pay is pretty weak. That's just a few but the most prevalent.

High Quality Staff, High Expectations

Pros

The team is incredibly bright, hungry for success and works well together. The company generally empowers staff and executive management frequently implores the team to think and act like the business owner. The sales culture is one that's empowering, with those that are struggling getting the majority of scrutiny; with that said, this is not a "you're fired" sales organization. They generally understand the ebbs and flows of sales, and tend to believe any prolonged struggles are systemic rather than personal. You'll get every chance to perform and if your work product suggests you're an "A" player, you'll be treated accordingly.

Cons

Executive management expects a lot of the managing director and sales leadership. It's run like all consulting services businesses - with a close eye on P&L, utilization percentages, headcount, sales pipeline, etc. There is pressure to perform. The management team is very motivated to drive revenue, which comes with a lot of metric-based evaluations that don't always jibe with reality.
