Pros

Office location and after hour vendor fairs. If you can succeed here, you can get a job anywhere! People on your team can be hit or miss (that's anywhere I suppose).

Cons

Little to no career advancement. Debuted Inside/Out model, pairing Field & Inside reps early 2017 with no clear playbook or definitive strategy with undefined roles/responsibilities, only to change compensation package 3 times - retroactively this Winter/Spring. Resources are overworked and underwhelm with turn around time and help. Managers are hit or miss. Field & Inside managers bicker back & forth to no resolve, strategy or tact. HR is not present when you need them, nor do they genuinely listen when they ask how the workplace can improve. The Auburn location is stiff/corporate and the Portland office governs with tenured managers that are not leaders. They've said things are only getting better for about 3-years now. Too many VP's behind a screen micromanaging.

If you need money it’s fine.
