Pros

-High quality research -Strong brand reputation

Cons

-Sales management lacks experience and leadership. -Toxic culture of favoritism and suffocating micro-management. -Leadership is blind to the challenges facing the business and unwilling to solicit and understand feedback from clients and employees. -The culture and go-to-market approach is the opposite of "customer first" -Disjointed and outdated sales technology and processes make simple tasks difficult and time consuming. (Much of the business is managed on spreadsheets).

Pros

Being a globally recognized company makes it easy to consistently engage clients. Great benefits. Amazing people (managers and colleagues) For the most part there is a clear path to success and promotions. Executives listen to feedback after every internal call to help guide strategy.

Cons

In office mandate increasing in office days from once a month to once a week. Need to live in Florida or Texas because of the in office mandate. Promotions take a while since there are many people going for the same roles. Hard to reach clients and constant territory’s shifting makes it difficult to achieve the numbers you and management expect.
