Pros

You'll learn a lot about technology. Exposure to different industries. Business acumen. Speaking with VP and C-level. The sales process they teach is decent.

Cons

The midsize enterprise (SMB) channel has no integrity. Gartner will take money out of your pocket with no warning (wild right) and then act like nothing happened. If you're making them money, you can easily get away doing almost anything illegal and unethical (it's actually encouraged) & management will be the first to turn a blind eye - you'll probably get promoted and recognized for doing it! They know you're expendable so no one really cares about your personal/ career development. They hire children into management who have no track record of success (entertaining at how bad it is). The "product" is typically never a value-added solution, does not have an ROI, and as sales people you are given absolutely no tools except Outlook and Excel, so good luck. The management (minus a few) have absolutely no idea what's going on and will place the blame anywhere but themselves. Stay away from this company or at least the midsize channel.

Pros

Decent brand to have on your CV if you get to survive more than a year

Cons

Where to start? Terrible company culture, zero room for you to be yourself. You’ll have to follow their best practices even when you go to the bathroom. Your success only depends on how lucky you are with your territory and manager. You’ll be treated like huge failure if you dont close deals as quick and well as some other peers do. Zero flexibility, work from home is seen like treachery, guys have to wear a suit with 40 degrees outside and in a REGUS building. Insane turnover and number of unhappy employees. Many of the positive reviews come from people in the academy or individuals that want to go for a management position (HR and RVP ask them to post a positive review) If you want to save on therapy, look for another company.
