Pros

The new private equity firm that owns Renaissance seems to have a good plan to hopefully turn around a dying product line. The new CEO seems to really care about all facets of the organization and the people.

Cons

The sales leadership is extremely disconnected from the rest of the organization. Dripping in arrogance. They have no desire to listen to employee feedback and they are lacking customer knowledge.

Pros

Some of the most amazing people you’ll ever work with. Generally supportive peers. Leaders are kind and not intentionally toxic. Strong brand recognition and a variety of solutions to enable solution selling.

Cons

The culture of the organization seems to have succumbed to the broader climate surrounding politics and education. Immense pressure is placed on sales team to deliver in saturated territories with beyond unachievable quotas for some and cake quotas for others. No cost of living increases, lots of layoffs and unclear path for growth with an egregious lack of transparency from leadership about the glaring issues. NONE of this seems intentional or malicious-it just seems like a lot of behaviors caused by extreme desperation.
