Pros

- Decent pay, but definitely not industry leading - No micro management within my BU - Decent solutions that have a place and are fairly easy to sell - Company as a whole has its hands on about every type of data available

Cons

- Pay becomes flat and doesn't scale with increased sales revenue goals - Poor leadership within middle management to upper management, more interested in back slapping and the top/bottom profits to see it is costing them business and employees - Lack of vision within BU I work in - No longer industry leading when it comes to solutions sold to prospects - The company and BU's possess tons of data, but there is a lack of industry leading solutions that make the data actionable - Entirely to focused on top & bottom profits 365/24/7 to the point it has and will continue to cost the company sales and employees - Benefit package lags behind many 'mid'-sized companies I and my wife have worked for - Very unorganized and heavy internal politics from one BU to the next, makes it difficult to practically impossible to conduct business. "seamless" to the customer is a fantasy at this point - Lack of career path, even though they conduct annual employee review meetings to "help you grow and advance"

Pros

Decent salary & benefits, monthly no internal meeting days

Cons

Friendly reminder that HR does not care about you. They care about staff with seniority, whom they will allow to retaliate despite that being against company policies. Think twice about reporting the higher ups because it will come back to haunt you, guaranteed. Also, AI is the only thing that matters anymore. Watching the volume of once-impressive colleagues become so single and simple minded through constant AI usage is not only disappointing but genuinely alarming. Thinking for oneself is no longer the standard, it seems, and speaking against such unfettered use of AI in all things will get you professionally ostracized.
