Pros

Good colleagues, some fun organised office activities and catered lunches occasionally.

Cons

Terrible upper management, including what could be considered harassment. Toxic sales culture. People who are unqualified and have poor work ethic get promoted into jobs they are not qualified for based on who they know in the company. No real path for career development or progression unless you are s Products are unreliable but salespeople are forced to sell them. They say unlimited PTO but it's not, at least not for the sales team.
