Pros

Prior to new management, I had a fine experience with the company. Working remote has been a plus

Cons

Where to start... New management is terrible and attempting to cut commissions from top performers in anyway possible. Micromanaging is at an all time high. Terrible work environment. I have never taken a 60% paycut after several years of top performance until this company
