Worn out and on way out

Pros

The technology and vision are excellent. The company is financially stable and the benefits are good.

Cons

My experience is that cronyism and favoritism are key to your success here just like being in the right clique in high school. Working hard, making your number, and going the extra mile to help the team make its number does not seem to be a good reason to be treated well. In addition, I'm fielding increased customer complaints due to support and quality issues so be prepared to front-end those as well as dealing with the moving quota targets as described by other reviews. The compensation and benefits are great if you're one of the "lucky" ones but you can be starved to death if you're not. In addition, it is my opinion that the latest sales compensation plan changes are not to my benefit.

Pros

You will be successful if you comfortable working in a Chinese management style company. Typical salary and benefits for industry and Bay Area.

Cons

Cheap/frugal on expenses. If you are an acquired company, expect your tenure to last 12 -18 months max, especially if you are a manager or above. Limited internal promotion movement. Lots of senior management turnover.

Pros

It's a job and they are hiring. The reason they hire is there is a lot of employee turnover.

Cons

Was slow in paying commissions. Lack of customer support.
