Pros

Good Office, Not much positive to say about it really!!

Cons

Bad management, Chaotic infrastructure, Ruthless/Careless Attitude towards staff, Long Working Hours. This is a start up company where it is all too obvious that the people in decision making positions are very inexperienced and engage in bizaar and foolish work practices.If they had worked in a "normal" company before they might have an idea about how to run things resonably efficiently. There is not an atmospere where you feel you can approach the management with suggestions but must rather tread carelfully lest you hurt their ego. I do not have an optimistic outlook for this orgnaisation and perhaps the atmosphere of impending disaster existing there is stressing the management and causing them to conduct themselves so badly. There is much waste in this organisation while they wont spend money on necessary stuff. The outfitting of the office was very poor with door handles etc being very unsuitable for a workplace if you had any sort of disability.

Not many cons. People are really cool.

Pros

Gaining experience targeting multiple industries

Cons

Management doesn’t care about you. Unrealistic goals. Everyone at 30-40% of quota. Complicated quota attainment system. Your job is to ask for 70% of margins for small businesses that have only 10-15% margin budgets
