Pros

- As a manager I had decent pay - Big company so it is a recognizable name on your resume

Cons

- Upper management ALWAYS had a hidden agenda and were dishonest, they would have company All Hands but would never actually address issues. It was more of just a ploy to make it seem like a positive place to work - Changed commission structure constantly without communicating it to me first, then would make an announcement to reps that would negatively effect them. I would have to do damage control and they would be unresponsive about it and not address it again at all. Multiple times I was told by the sales director "This change is final, they just need to deal with it" - Any time they made a change they never gave a clear reason as to why they made a change, which in return made everyone much more skeptical - It was very clear they didn't want to pay reps for over achieving - No career growth path at all

Pros

The pace and work/ life balance are very manageable and they are still pro remote work which is a huge benefit as a lot of companies push return to office. The benefits and salaries are great compared to the industry standards.

Cons

Lots of turmoil, changeover, layoffs and chaos caused by a recent re-org. ELT does not have vision or innovation outside of “AI” and it’s hard to feel confident about the long term success of the company. Lots of white men who lack creativity.
