Pros

The products are interesting to work on.

Cons

Senior management is stuck in the 90s. Buy a company, send the work to India. Lots of acronym soup in all hands meetings that don't really translate into how employees can make a different. Many fight the transition to Scrum. Internal IT is outsourced (this is crazy), so they tend to pile on as many "security" tools as possible, leading to lots of conflicts, delays in getting issues resolved, etc.

Pros

They hardly ever fire anyone.

Cons

They hardly ever fire anyone. Comp plan is terrible. You get paid on Opportunities sources but there isn't any criteria written down on what makes a discovery call turn into an opportunity. Leading them to cherry-pick deals and choose if you get paid or not. They don't have product market fit. The entire new logo space didn't close anything last year. Getting placed in a good, high paying seat is all dependent upon nepotism. No clear path for growth. Constantly moving the goal post and changing promotion criteria. The promotion path leads you to a role that has historically not closed a deal and the role is a huge pay cut for some BDR's leading to high churn or career BDR's.
