Pros

Has potential but things are shifted around way too often. It is difficult to maintain consistency to be effective when momentum is stifled.

Cons

The best accounts are shifted to certain favorites. A plan is developed and then changed without giving it a chance. Knee-jerk reactions would be the best way to describe it.

Pros

Amazing product and great value proposition. Easy to sell from that perspective. Easy to buy into and nice to know you sell a first rate product.

Cons

Lots of talk about equality for women and they have made some strategic hires in that regard but overall women do not get promoted easily internally. In fact you have to ask yourself why all the hype and marketing around equality if the company didn't have an issue. Many of the old peoplesoft guard get the plum management positions and they are not nearly as qualified as the women who have proven themselves capable and are not even considered for the roles. Generally speaking the management is terrible. They are lucky that the teams are motivated and love selling the product in spite of their management team. Extremely low morale across the sales team. Revolving door of managers doesn't help and bad management choices have the sales teams focused on the wrong things.
