Pros

Some quality people across the organization who really care, but are completely hamstrung by a company that doesn't care about its products, customers, or people. Unlimited PTO, Remote work, decent benefits.

Cons

Executive and senior sales leadership turn a blind eye every day to the fact that most of their products don't work. They know nothing about the space their teams sell. They force quotas on territories covering ERPs like Netsuite and countless others while knowing that the product not only misses expectations but typically breaks not long after the implementation. That is assuming that they can successfully implement them at all. Unfortunately, they have bought many companies and fired all the technical staff that came with them, so they cannot fix the breaks. So, you are expected to sell outdated, often broken software with absurd quotas. If you address the fact that the market knows and broadcasts that your product is heavily flawed and over-priced, you are labeled an excuse-maker and moved out. The COO only cares about himself and the cronies who followed him over from the last dumpster fire they all escaped. Now they are pouring gallons of gas on his new fire while turning over massive amounts of reps, sales managers, and even VPs along the way. This place makes micro-management look good. What they do is so much worse. Don't expect to be treated like a sales professional. Expect to be treated like a toddler. You can crush a quota, and the sales leaders will tell you in the next breath that it's not enough and time to get back to work. Run. Run fast.

Pros

ISW offers meaningful opportunities for flexibility and skill development, but there are areas where organizational practices could be strengthened to improve employee experience and retention. Remote-first workplace, providing flexibility and supporting work–life balance Access to training and development resources, including courses designed to help employees build skills and grow professionally Exposure to cross-functional and international collaboration, which can broaden perspective and experience.

Cons

Compensation does not always feel aligned with the scope of responsibilities and workload Communication across teams can be inconsistent, particularly in a globally distributed environment Management feedback style may feel overly critical at times, rather than supportive or coaching-oriented Cultural expectations appear uneven, with U.S.-based employees often expected to adapt to international teams, while reciprocal cultural understanding is less emphasized High levels of monitoring and oversight can create a stressful environment and limit autonomy Lean principles are promoted through training, but leadership application of those principles may feel inconsistent Relatively high turnover across teams, which can affect morale, continuity, and workload balance
