Pros

Opportunity to work with a team that is close-knit; work with many technologies, opportunities both customer-facing and/or internal only, gain "global" experience by working with employees all over the world and learn different cultures, good benefits, be part of a company that develops products from essentially the ground floor.

Cons

U.S based employee loyalty has fallen greatly since the company went private (bought by another company). Jobs are routinely moved overseas for cost-cutting benefits. Company's direction has become less known to employees and possibly even by executives.

Pros

There genuinely are a lot of great people working here but they are often lower level employees. Great work-life balance and flexibility (for the most part..) Solid benefits package(health insurance, PTO, etc)

Cons

Communication with management is very poor. They hardly consider the opinions of the “worker bees.” Compensation and incentives slowly eroded while you continue to take on more work. “Feathers in your cap” does not count as compensation. Very little, if any, commission. Far too aggressive targets for the resources available. Extreme offshoring of existing positions leading to everyone feeling like they have a gun pointed to their head. Executives hardly have any idea what their organization even looks like on a day to day basis. “Visionary” executives don’t cut it. Most importantly: non-existent path for career development and growth. Taken advantage of, especially in this role. Major conflicts of interests with AM’s and management surrounding growing out of the SSE position.
