Pluspunten

This product could possibly compete but other than that, there are no pros to this company at all. I am not disgruntled at all. I have another great job now.

Minpunten

The investors need to get involved and remove the CEO immediately! He is driving the business into the ground. This type of sale takes a sales cycle built on a relationship. The schools do not have readily available the funds to write checks for products within 15 days of a meeting. Many schools have to write grants for technology purchases. This takes time. However, the CEO has unrealistic and demanding goals that could never be reached within his deadline. He has fired Marketing and Sales directors for no reason, moved people around so quickly from day to day that it makes no sence, made Marketing or Sales Dir. write emails to sales people acting like it was from them, saying irrational things or demonstrating how incompetent his thought processes were. He has fired sales people or moved accounts to an in house account once a sale was made so as to not to have to pay commissions. There are so so so many things wrong with this man that he cant possibly be seriously running a company. Its not like a Steve Jobs situation where his madness made sence and his rudeness was tolerated due to his genius. Please understand that I say this with all sincerity, this man seriously might have a mental problem that should be handled by a Dr. before he loses everything.

Pluspunten

There is a great deal of opportunity in this company for those with ambition, team work, and the patience and understanding that a start up company will have it's ups and downs. The current leadership that is in the building on a day to day basis has high expectations for their teams, but also a great ability to draw out the strengths of each team member and help them grow. There have been some disgruntled ex employees that have expressed deep dissatisfaction, however, I must say since the changes have been made in the company, the culture is much more positive and professional. Those were much needed changes.

Minpunten

The greatest challenge is the pay scale. Many of the positions pay under industry standard; however, I'm hoping that with company growth and individual proven track records, all employees (not just sales) will be rewarded monetarily.

Pluspunten

Most people working at the company do have an earnest desire to promote a great product with so much potential, and they want to help customers as well as their fellow teammates within in the company. There may be opportunities to try your hand at other positions or learn new skills while helping other departments during a team effort.

Minpunten

Respect for employees and their efforts come off lacking in depth, without consideration of an employee's entire history and role in the company as a whole. it's almost like, all the effort an employee puts in through most of his/her time there gets completely dismissed without a second thought if s/he happens to make one "wrong" move. I guess that goes along with notion of being "expendable". I've seen people who were integral to the company's previous successes be removed, often causing a hit to the company's success. There's also a lot of over-promising/under-delivering to both customers and employees.
