Pros

Coworkers have your back and are very understanding. Unfortunately, it's because you all relate on the incredible pressure you are under and lack of knowing whether you'll have a job one more week. The pay was competitive and fair for what it was. Benefits are competitive Big payout bonuses for sales members...if you are lucky to close a big deal on nothing but cold calls.

Cons

The biggest con is seeing your friends and coworkers get laid off every couple of Fridays with no heads up. Management has little they can do to help you succeed. Sales was 100% cold calling. No marketing support. Not even a PowerPoint to run potential customers through your services. No inbound leads. Leadership completely unwilling to consider smarter marketing. Literally hired a 70 year old with old Xerox cold calling training videos on Laserdisc to teach us how to be better sales people. High turnover. Dishonest with clients and employees. No loyalty to hard working performers if they have a poor quarter.

Pros

Great work atmosphere, great people to work with. Great place to build a career. I have had many experiences, worked with many senior managers who have had careers I can only dream of. The people are what really make this place go, we work hard to ensure great client engagements and projects. We work great as a team, in the past we had gone thru some tough times, but we have come out ahead in a much better place because of the people and the shift in culture of the company. We have an "edge" to drive new business and build the company the right way. If you aren't afraid of hard work, trust me the pros way outweigh the cons, the CEO will make sure you are taken care of and valued as an employee. You can't ask for more than that. On top of that, great benefits and great compensation and great work life balance.

Cons

Pressure, but what job doesn't have pressure? Past senior management no longer with the company built a culture of complacency and handed out raises and job titles to employees who they personally hired for the company. This rubbed many long time employees the wrong way and the culture of complacency led to some rough months. But our current leadership team righted the ship and built the culture to focus on rewarding hard work and valuable employee contributions to the bottom line.
