Pros

Some relatively good standalone products. Very hard working technical pre-sales and consultants

Cons

Currently losing sales people at an alarming rate, micro-management by spreadsheet and multiple salesforce add-ons. No marketing, no cross border co-operation and mindless oration by senior management who witter on to a detached, confused staff about selling in blue and not red oceans.

Pros

As someone who has worked on the SDR team and now on the Inside sales team I can say for certainty that the culture is definitely not a fun atmosphere. Play harder is doing math equations on the whiteboard.

Cons

It's true we sell the most complex solutions in the world. This is why I've closed one account in twelve months.

Pros

Not much work, decent pay and very flexible work from options.

Cons

Cons? Everything else. The company is ideally suited for lifers who have no intention of doing anything innovative and simply collect a paycheck. Very German centric (naturally) and for people used to American companies, this place sucks to work at. Too much process, too little innovation except meaninglessly acquiring companies which are not very well integrated together. Usually the founders of those companies end up leaving when they realize this is a 1970s company. Product portfolio is far too complex, sales force can't figure out how to sell it and US sales reps are leaving in droves. Zero brand recognition in the US. While pay and benefits are decent, no stock awards. There is no skin in the game for the average employee.
