Vantaggi

good benefits, paid for by not paying commissions

Svantaggi

Don't be fooled by their "culture" bs. you're a commodity just like any other company and the minute they want to cut costs...your out. They lay off people all the time, I saw several rounds in a year - Don't expect to make any sideways moves either they would rather fill position from the outside than promote and train internally as I found out - Their commission system is awful, you have to be there when the deal is closed AND when it ships. With year long purchase cycles of service providers don't expect any hardware commissions for the first year or more. And they follow the old adage that a layoff is best served cold, they don't try to find other positions for you, you're just immediately shown the door.

Vantaggi

Decent salary. You'll also quickly gain valuable experience in how not to operate on your next job: a lesson that will serve you well in future roles.

Svantaggi

Old-fashioned work culture where you're expected to execute without question. Excessive overtime work, release cycles are chaotic, and there's little appetite for improving systems or sustainability, it's all about following orders rather than thinking critically.
