Billable hours, as the business unit operates as its own profit loss center. Consulting is strictly post sales design, implementation and onboarding - moving from customer project to customer project. Large amount of technical and consultative duties. Working for an IT solutions company with an inhouse product, streamlines delivery and support drastically.

Day-to-day responsibilities changes depending on what you're working on which is what I love in comparison to doing the same thing day in and day out. We work on documentation in preparation for projects, have customer or internal meetings, implement VMware products, etc.

Cons

    • Because you are representing a major software vendor in the industry, there's a lot of pressure to really know your stuff especially when it comes to customer-facing activities.

    • No clear central documentation on internal processes

    • The not-so-great thing about working at my company is that you have to be proactive in asking questions and asking for help because you are expected to track yourself.

    • Changes happen too fast before structure and support can follow up.

    • The catering for vegetarians.
