Pros

1. Good People and culture 2. Good events to keep employees happy. 3. If you know your stuff then you will be rewarded with promotions. 4. Time is given to solve issues. 5. CEO is good and cares for employees.

Cons

1. It is the most demeaning way to put up the names of bottom performing developers on the board for the world to see. This is not a sales job and you do not motivate your Software Developers this way. This thing should be between the supervisor and the employee. 2. Old Stack, STILL USING PHP. The testing platform for developers are always broken which hampers the productivity. 3. Sometimes, the work of the employee is not gauged properly. 4. Some team leads are very good and push the developers and some are bad and inexperienced. Depends on the team you are in. 5. Stock options are bad, I mean so BAD. 6. Interviewing process is not aligned with the work that is done.

Pros

You can make a lot of money if you are in the right territory and have a good client base that hasn’t been oversold by previous AMs. The training is very good and you will make good friends! The people they hire are smart and fun to be around

Cons

If there has been high turnover in your territory it will be hard to sell as the clients have products that have not been properly implemented and are likely gun shy to purchase. It will also depend how “over promised/under delivered” their experience with new business is. The work/life balance can, and probably will, become very toxic. You are on the road constantly if you have a travel heavy territory which makes it difficult to get admin work done during business hours. You will be working before and/or after work - probably on the weekends as well. Ask for transparency in your territory assignment. You want to know how far your furthest client is as you will have to go see them in person at some point
