Pros

Fun and like minded co-workers. You will participate in good and foundational sales training. Occasional fun and relaxing post work events covered by corporate.

Cons

Do not recommend for men to work at the Las Vegas office. There was a female co-worker I hung out with outside of work and would have casual conversations with during work. She even met my girlfriend and I assumed that we were friends. One day during a lunch break at the office, we were having a conversation and based off of the context of the conversation, I asked her if she ever wanted to start a family. Later that day I was pulled into my VP’s office and was given a formal sexual harassment violation warning. I was told, “You just finished your sexual harassment compliance training but there are some things we need to review. As a guy, there are certain questions you can’t be asking women in the workplace.” Lesson learned, keep all women at arms length especially in the sales industry. This individual is currently interviewing for one of the open manager positions so that is why I recommend for men in particular to not apply to work that this office. Not worth working in a hostile work environment.

Pros

- Established company with a long history and relatively stable business operations. - Provides a sense of job stability compared to many organizations navigating rapid changes in the current AI-driven market. - Lower risk of frequent restructuring or large-scale layoffs than many high-growth technology companies. - Opportunity to work with experienced employees who have deep institutional and domain knowledge. - Predictable work environment that may appeal to individuals seeking long-term stability over rapid change. - Strong choice for professionals who value job security and a steady career path in an uncertain economic climate.

Cons

- Documentation is limited or rusted, and many operational processes lack clear runbooks or standardized procedures, making onboarding and troubleshooting more difficult than necessary. - If you're coming from a modern, fast-paced engineering environment, the organization may feel behind current industry practices and tooling. - Internal politics can sometimes outweigh technical merit or execution. - There are teams with very long-tenured employees where change and innovation can be difficult to drive. - Decision-making often involves multiple layers of approval, resulting in significant bureaucracy and slower execution. - Processes can move slowly, and collaboration is not always transparent across teams, leading to inefficiencies and occasional confusion around ownership. - In some areas, roles, responsibilities, and operational processes are not clearly defined, creating unnecessary chaos and inconsistent ways of working. - Engineering standards and best practices vary considerably between teams, making cross-team collaboration challenging. - Organizational change tends to happen slowly, which can be frustrating for employees who are focused on modernization, automation, and continuous improvement.
