Pros

- great people, the smart ones are still here - the vision is amazing, very few can make it as far as we have and even fewer have the focus we do on completing that vision

Cons

at the lower ranks, it's not clear the right people are getting promoted. With more and more people, it's just harder to get stuff done. More political boundaries and fewer end to end accountability.

Pros

Cutting edge technology with market leader owned by EMC. Good compensation plans if you over achieve sales plans

Cons

Poor communication and training from sales enablement and company marketing. Executive Management believes marketing is not necessary to sell solutions. Employees are not treated with respect from management
