Pros

Stable place of employment, privately owned, and exists for decades. Good people and work-life balance are alright. A place that thinks about proper strategy before it performs an action. Has initiatives to show non-monetary appreciation for good employees

Cons

Compensation is comparable to the market average and never more. Corporate company's bureaucracy Pay raises are a joke

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.
