Pros

Tons of flexibility and travel if you like that. Good management at the VP and Regional Manager Level especially in Sales. Customer relationships are key, so if you like people and do a lot of relationship selling this is a great place to work.

Cons

New MD on Sales side has changed comp plans and as we all know, compensation drives behavior. Upper management and CEO seem a bit out of touch with the market. Moving away from trying to understand customer needs and more into product focused selling.

Thank you for this balanced and thoughtful review. We're glad to hear that our benefits and investment in people are making a positive impact, those are commitments we take seriously. On the process feedback: Leadership is actively reviewing operational workflows, and the advice to listen more closely to employee feedback is something we're holding ourselves accountable to. If you're open to it, we'd encourage you to bring specific examples forward through your team or people and culture contacts. Change is most effective when it's grounded in the real experiences of the people doing the work, and that means you.

Pros

-Great company -Team has talented, experienced account managers and product experts who know the territory well

Cons

West team management is heavy on micromanagement and sets unrealistic territory targets without rep input — high turnover, and long tenure in company seems to shield this manager from accountability and growth
