Pluspunten

EXPENSES!! Some wonderful colleagues Pay new hires well If you get lucky, commission can be good but it is probably 1 in 50 chance No stress other than not making money Impossible to be fired Good benefits

Minpunten

Where to start .. - inexperienced front line managers with zero ability to add value to complex opportunities. Have made so many awful management hires - upper management sits in the UK and manage by bullying and fear - 2 people smashing their targets and everyone else on 0% - give people 20 accounts but want people to have 100 interactions per week. People just make up the stuff to add to crm - not a sales job, basically an old school marketing role - all the good sales people have left, nobody ever comes back! - the atmosphere is toxic as the majority hate the place - now bad for your CV - so disconnected from what prospects and customers want - management treat employees like school children, it is embarrassing - going back to the 80s on approach to working. At the desk from 9 to 5.30pm, no working from home etc

Pluspunten

Every group/division can be different in how they treat their employees, but I'd say overall there is very good atmosphere of trust and fairness. There is a strong focus on education, and they reimburse for outside classes taken (Up to 5k/year I think). Benefits are good, and I'd say quite competitive in the market. Good 401K matching (they'll contribute a max of 3% of your 6% or greater). Free drinks in the breakroom. Flexibility to work from home at times. (If you live 50+ miles away from an office you can work full-time from home...policy).

Minpunten

They don't try to make the workplace anything special (maybe a pool table and arcade game are cliche or gimmicky?). In the 10 years I've worked there, they've given 2 measly %1 cost of living raises (this is the same with most everyone I've spoken to, some don't get any raises). You will not get a substantial raise ever, unless you leave then get rehired on (they will not match offers, better to leave). New employees that you train will make 10 - 20K more than you several years after you hire on (not just me, they do this to all tenured employees). They will give these untrained, less experienced people higher titles (again this is done to everyone not just me). You learn pretty quickly that you're dispensable. The company has billions in cash and they don't re-invest in their employees, just in acquiring new companies and hiring new people that know nothing that you get to train.
