Cloud Apps Sales
Pros: - OK base salary
- Fresh fruits, gym in the building
- Really great colleagues
- Benefits such as full sick leave coverage and life insurance
- If you're lucky with a manager, you get a good work/life balance
Cons: Never accept a job offer to work in cloud apps! You are risking to be trapped in:

- Unhealthy aggressive yet often remote management, including micro-management
- Business processes are disorganized, you struggle at every step, no support from departments that are supposed to support
- There are many cases when a sales rep wasn't paid a commission (!)
- Managers are oftentimes are incompetent and have no idea what are they doing and are absolutely blind and deaf to the feedback from employees
- The whole team doesn't have a power against a manager, very old-school boss-employee power exchange
- No opportunities to change a career within the organization 
- No HR-support, everything goes though a manager
- Every year there's a complete re-organization
- Interests of an employee are never taken into consideration, no one cares what you want and what are your career aspirations
- Even the top performers are always pressured and punished
