Cons
Executive leadership tends to close itself off from the reality of what’s really happening in the industry. The competition in this industry is fierce, Google, Microsoft, not to mention partner “co-opetion”, but sales executive receive no compensation for their effort. Organizationally the company moves at a snail’s pace compared to the rest of the industry. Innovative thoughts and ideas are stifled by less creative mind in the organization which wield the power and influence to implement change. It’s easier for management to say no than yes, negating the negotiation process and preventing Sales people from closing business.
