Pros

Most of the people are great, they work hard and take pride in doing a good job for the company and for the reseller customers.

Cons

Layoffs are a regular event, and have little or nothing to do with sales or job performance. It never feels safe, even if you are doing everything right. Might be politics, or it might be that the employees are simply numbers that the company feel can be easily replaced.
