Pros

Decent health benefits, good co-workers, unlimited vacation (ironically you can't fully take advantage of it if you're trying to sell on company's behalf).

Cons

DCG executives can't seem to grow former IBM x86 server business's market shares and revenues quarter-over-quarter, year-over-year consistently. Financials are manipulated to paint a rosy picture. North America top executive changes every 2 yrs because revenues and profits (PCON) aren't growing at acceptable pace. Sales quotas are delivered towards the end of the quarter once Mgt has a good idea where most deals will land to keep sales teams from overachieving revenue objectives and commission payouts. Current sales compensation plan penalizes and or forces sales reps to go negative/pay back commission draws (which are forced upon them to accept at the beginning of the fiscal year) if they don't hit 50% quota target if/when they leave the company does not motivate and retain good sales people. Morale is already quite low on DCG, but much different on PCG business. Find a job within PCG if you want to align with potential success.

Pros

A pay check that clears the bank, at least for the short term. Working on my CV on company time!

Cons

What was a good company before being acquired, is gone. The talent and innovation has been destroyed by incompetent leadership. Fiscal losses continue to mount due to lack of effective leadership, strategy and execution!
