Pros

Great technology company, products/ services easy to sell. Nice team of hard working individuals. Good benefits.

Cons

BDR Managment is unprofessional, and borderline abusive. I’ve seen and heard management repeatedly use sexual innuendo and sexiest remarks which makes team memebers including myself very uncomfortable. All reports made to HR and higher management, igorned. Atmosphere has become very depressing, everyone is scared to go to HR, because they will get fired (as examples where set, when others complained)everyone is finding it hard to do their job. Some people left, are interviewing elsewhere or keeping records and looking at their legal options. ..: if your looking for a vendor with a call Center mentally, micro managment, begin treated like school children while someone hurls abuse at you.. then this is the place for you.

Pros

- It "used to be" work life balance - great manager(only works if you work for the right guy)

Cons

- It used to be a visa-friendly, all of a sudden, the company decides to review everyone's visa extension without any further transparent notice. - Pay is way more lower than industry average. - It varies depends on team. Follow the right boss, you will be in heaven. Follow the wrong boss, you will enjoy "Chinese 996 management" - Old technical skillsets Don't come.
