Pros

You will be exposed to new technologies and there is room for you to learn new things. Company is big, so you will have opportunity to see enterprise level of everything.

Cons

Company has hot desk policy. You won't get a dedicated desk and every morning you will be surprised somebody else is sitting at your desk. Though this is not the case for managers and they have their dedicated space. Discrimination happening at desk space level. Work hours are 9 - 6 and some of the teams strictly monitor you. Lunch is one hour and unpaid. Stocks are released in very small amounts. If you see big numbers in your job offer as RSU/Options, just be aware that you will have them after 5 years. They give away a small portion of your stocks every quarter.

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.
