Pros

Smart/great people get hired and become amazing friends/colleagues.

Cons

-Pay is well below average, especially for middle-to-senior level Client Service professionals. -Technology products have dedicated groups that don't help Production/CS as much as they should with implementation. -Bonus incentives are a joke. I've managed well over $2m in revenue, multiple years, and have even closed deals FOR sales people, and I see MAYBE .002% of that portfolio in the form of a bonus. -The Sr. Sales staff reap all the bonus/incentive benefits although they don't do anything once an account is won and managed by CS. -Sales are BULLIES and DIVAS. The company can care less about the other departments, so long as their whiney sales teams are happy. -In general, the Sales staff is rather uneducated yet think they know more than they really do. Incompetence breed incompetence in the Sales division.

Pros

Provides strong opportunities for travel, especially around conferences. The company makes a strong effort to onboard and support new employees and clients. There are many great colleagues to connect with and learn from.

Cons

My experience was that leadership lacked clear direction and timely decision-making. The culture felt transactional, with employee retention and development taking a back seat to short-term financial performance.
