- Management sucks - No proper corporate structure, experienced individuals sitting at the bottom of the career ladder and dump idiots sitting in senior roles :) - English is hardly spoken in Canada, diversity failure - Gangs culture (Chinese, Indian, Iranian, ...etc.) No inclusion if you are different. - HR sucks Asian mentality of fear-based management, with an ultimate focus on winning "Best employer on paper" awards.

Pros

- On target OTE and uncapped commissions - Great overall work culture - A lot of cool Field marketing events - Ability to expense dinners, entertainment, gifts for clients - Great company vision and a broad security fabric portfolio with several third party validations for a well-known cybersecurity brand makes it easy to sell and be successful.

Cons

- New business quotas are the same for every seller at least on my team, who all have very different territories, some with more white space heavy accounts that can be much more challenging to hit quota compared to other territories. Quotas went up by 20% from previous year. - Too many internal systems to navigate - processes and sales enablement tools could be more efficient - You can be the top performer in your US sales segment, and still not make it to President's Club because of the way it's structured - competing against different segments and only top 3-4% get to go each year. Rewarding top performers in general is an area needing improvement in my opinion.
