Pros

Good technology Sharp/smart engineering talent Talented execs Decent field engineering Decent base comp

Cons

Very high, unrealistic sales quotas Sales comp plan geared to NOT pay out at-plan commissions for the majority and permits very few to exceed plans; Most sales reps earn less than OTE. More sales reps hired than needed to cover territory. Lack of transparency in quota setting process/basis. Middle Management hired as yes-men to manage upwards. Not many non-male managers in the sales teams.
