ODP Update- 6 Months in
Pros: BUPA, reps in the odp team minus management. Can't think of anything else for ODP
Cons: If you are reading this because you are looking to apply for a role. I beg you not to take the offer. These people are inhumane. They will show you dreams that are all lies. They don't care about you. They will hire you because you are an experienced field based sales rep and make you get on the phone like you are an inside sales. Basically you will be getting paid a rep's salary to do an inside sales job.

You will need to make 90 minutes of calls a day and build around $50k worth of pipe every week regardless of how dead your accounts are. The mid market does not want to hear from us, they don't like us. Customers know how we operate and know our tricks. They would rather be with AWS or Microsoft or any other vendor for that matter.

The person tasked to put the tech team together quit after 3 months in. Now that he's leaving, he's been tasked to fire reps left right centre on his way out. He couldn't deal with his boss. No one can. If he can't take it, there is no way you are going to survive here. You are better off at a different company but not at ODP at Oracle. I am already looking around for jobs and will be out of here asap. 

DO NOT TAKE A JOB WITH ODP TECH (IAAS/PAAS).
