Management is under a lot of pressure to grow revenue and customer base. The product is a cashiering software solution for city, county and state organizations. Existing customer set is great, but will be very difficult to bring on new customers or grow the existing customer business. The product is outdated. It integrates with payment processors and truly is only an "over the counter" solution. No mobile solution. Integrates with IVR, Web, etc.. Sales reps are expected to sell maintenance even though you are not paid on maintenance.
Since Si is a wholly owned subsidiary of Harris Computers, you actually end up competing with some of the other companies. It has been hard to "grow" because Harris has not, in the past, been open to new ideas. Due to the pressures the management team is under, this is a very volatile environment to work in.
Commission is based only on software sales. Very long sale cycle and commission rates are low.
Most interns will be hired on as support, move on to professional/custom development, but leave due to below average pay for the industry.
