Pros

Some of the people at Juniper are really great. I know some of the relationships I formed will last a lifetime. Especially on the partner side, you will encounter some really great people.

Cons

Juniper has failed to pay out commission fairly to employees for over 2 years. The tool to understand what each deal is worth does not work and there is no plan in place to fix it. The staff members responsible for said tool have since quit the company. No questions about pay ever got answered during my 2.5 years at Juniper. I waited 6 months and longer for commission checks due to shipping delays and was still denied full correct payouts. Another example of unfair pay was witnessed while gapping a territory. I was promised to receive commission on worked deals for a territory that was lacking a rep temporarily, never came through. Another example of losing out on pay is the changing of accounts. There is constant change in account ownership and you will have to spend time tracking down deals you already worked and closed to ensure your owed payout. It is almost guaranteed it will be incorrect and you will feel like you had money stolen from you. Finally, the sales department does not support any title, pay, or role change. You will stay in the same position for over a year with no change. Your work load will increase but your pay will not. I do not recommend working at Juniper Networks in the sales department until majors changes have been made.
