Pros

Very solid tech that is constantly improving and expanding Excellent onboarding and ongoing training

Cons

Zealous focus on metrics to drive decisions at the leadership and corporate level, even when in direct contrast to common sense assessment of what is happening in the specific local market. Arrogance with the Operations (Deal Desk and Legal) side of the house that can make it challenging to get Enterprise deals done.
