Pros

Teams were collaborative and chance to touch/build many different products. Given a lot of autonomy to build own tools. Talented engineers around the company. Work benefits were good too.

Cons

Tech management scope began to creep, causing software engineers to take on support/maintenance roles rather than building software. Quite a few people left as a result. Office space unfortunately felt more like a bank than a typical modern engineering environment.

Pros

-Great company -Team has talented, experienced account managers and product experts who know the territory well

Cons

West team management is heavy on micromanagement and sets unrealistic territory targets without rep input — high turnover, and long tenure in company seems to shield this manager from accountability and growth
