Pros

Softchoice is a great place to start your career. Training is done very well and they pay for you to live in Canada for a month. Once you're back in your sales center first 4 months are rough making 100 dials a day with not much response but you've just got to get through it. Best asset of Softchoice is there people. Most people that work here are solid, easy to get along with individuals who work hard and play hard. Seattle office especially is awesome. If you work hard there is ability to have tremendous success in this role

Cons

Job can get tiresome at times with so much competition in this space. You are constantly asked to lower prices by customers in order to get sales and you can get dropped off very fast with nothing softchoice does being proprietary. There is so much turnover its insane. Since ive been working here for about 2 years theres been 4 C-Level changes which is unheard of and tells me something is not right at the top. Also company is extremely Canadian focused with US offices getting shunned from recognition a lot of the time.

Pros

Remote work Recently acquired by WWT

Cons

What they tell you the role is definitely is NOT what it is. How they deceive you into taking this role is unethical. They promise you inbound and warm leads and claim to be the preferred AWS Partner but AWS doesn't want to deal with us at all because we don't have the technical staff qualified to support their customers. When we acquire AWS customers they wind up having a bad experience and Softchoice has a really bad reputation internally at AWS. They target ex AWS employees because they are already certified & they already have contacts. Meanwhile all the managers are not even certified, which means they don't know the content and can't talk with AWS Leaders effectively. There's favoritism so some people are forced to call nonstop and send emails but the people with sales don't do that. To cover it up, they just started having those people make calls but several months of records tell a different story. Management is extremely inexperienced and underpaid so they have side businessss and podcasts.
