Sales is old and out of touch

Pros

- Fantastic co-workers, lots of great talent across most departments - Decent benefits - Potential to travel for the job

Cons

- Culture is very stiff. This is by no means a hip tech company. They work at this though. - Old technology. Staff laptops for sales are cheap PCs and old iPads (no 3G/4G). Technology is pretty dated on the customer side as well, the only thing that keeps the company at the top of the market is its network of users and restaurants. - Constant change. Within a few months of bringing me on they essentially decided to restructure the sales org. Bonuses were slashed and the commission structure was changed for the worse.

Micromanagement

Pros

Good salary and location. Company I growing fast and stock is recovering back.

Cons

All the managers and directors have been there for almost 8-10 years and have not updated their technology skill set. They don't let their employees think on their own, but they influence how to get the task done and micromanage them, line-by-line code review. There is no recognition or encouragement for the hard work or for the innovation. The foody awards are only given to sales and marketing people and very rarely given to engineering team. The CTO is trying to build his own empire by firing current employees who disagrees with him and bringing his own people from his ex-company, so on one wants to propose any changes or disagrees with him.

Pros

Till now the company was built on old fashioned tech...., never gave good incentives to Engineering. With new CTO things are changing quickly....trying new technology and building new team.

Cons

Tolerance of under performed employees is very high.....it gives bad impression to the people who work hard.
