Pros

Pay is average. Benefits are good: PTO, STO, parental leave, health/dental/vision options

Cons

Company has become very unstable the past few years with multiple rounds of layoffs every year. Executive leadership team seems more concerned about buying competitor companies than investing in the existing product line & employees. The most common phrase heard in meetings the past few years is "do more with less" which translates to the remaining employees picking up the workload of the employees they continue to layoff due to "restructuring". Employees with 10, 20, 30 years of experience are being let go.

Pros

Some of the most amazing people you’ll ever work with. Generally supportive peers. Leaders are kind and not intentionally toxic. Strong brand recognition and a variety of solutions to enable solution selling.

Cons

The culture of the organization seems to have succumbed to the broader climate surrounding politics and education. Immense pressure is placed on sales team to deliver in saturated territories with beyond unachievable quotas for some and cake quotas for others. No cost of living increases, lots of layoffs and unclear path for growth with an egregious lack of transparency from leadership about the glaring issues. NONE of this seems intentional or malicious-it just seems like a lot of behaviors caused by extreme desperation.
