Pros

Friendly colleagues, onsite perks at headquarters location, work life balance

Cons

Having to live in Houston. Unethical business practices and shady deal structuring in the sales organization. Seasoned, experienced employees treated like they are children who have to ask permission for almost everything. Egotistical, abrasive, selfish and discriminatory management team. Entrenched Good 'ole white boy company - if you are minority or female or over 45 you will be treated very poorly eventually and possibly forced out - even with years of competent, faithful service. Worst company I have ever worked for and I am embarrassed to even include it on my resume.

Pros

They hardly ever fire anyone.

Cons

They hardly ever fire anyone. Comp plan is terrible. You get paid on Opportunities sources but there isn't any criteria written down on what makes a discovery call turn into an opportunity. Leading them to cherry-pick deals and choose if you get paid or not. They don't have product market fit. The entire new logo space didn't close anything last year. Getting placed in a good, high paying seat is all dependent upon nepotism. No clear path for growth. Constantly moving the goal post and changing promotion criteria. The promotion path leads you to a role that has historically not closed a deal and the role is a huge pay cut for some BDR's leading to high churn or career BDR's.
