1. Process matters. It's a good place for fresher to learn business process and become international. 2. Fair environment. Get promoted and bonus based on performance.

Cons

1. Though it's flat managed, it has strict hirachy which means u need to spend certain amount time to get promoted. 2. Too comfortable to work, less competitive to work.

Pros

The people were all nice. I was given broad latitude on how to do my job. And I had all the opportunity for advancement I wanted-- because I was overachieving my goals.

Cons

Some of the goal setting in sales was unreasonable and sometimes felt like an roundabout pay cut. Also, the compensation isn't as high as other more aggressive companies. But in exchange, you aren't fearful for your job on a regular basis.
