Pros

Some of the people were good to work with. Some of the luckier ones would have one or two good years - at most.

Cons

- Always project and assign numbers that are un-achievable (i.e. 20% growth in a market that is Shrinking annually by 5-10%) - Completely missed the boat on Cloud and Managed services offerings. - Comp plans are completely geared to avoiding paying employee. - Always in crisis/react mode - even when "planning for future fiscal years" - Field is largely ignored - Bureaucracy is rampant - Systems are horrible, and act as an impediment to sales
