Pros

Fully remote, decent flexibility with schedule, solid benefits, leader in the space.

Cons

There is a high degree of nepotism. Leaders are either bringing in their friends, even if they are not experienced enough, and a lot of the managers in the GTM team have very little experience actually managing. Majority of the team do not hit their quotas. And it's not market conditions either as it's been like this for the past four years. The product is at an enterprise level. The team as a whole isn't experienced enough to be selling in the enterprise sphere. It's a toxic atmosphere that's only getting worse. If you ever question anything you'll lose favor with leadership and be on the chopping block. I've seen three colleagues let go after voicing their opinion. The most shocking aspect is that a number of my colleagues give incorrect information and have very little knowledge of the product. No one seems to care. In fact two people who gave out incorrect information numerous times got promotions.

Pros

- Awesome founders when they were involved in the day-to-day - Great benefits

Cons

- Lost a lot of what made this place special during the scale up from 100-1000 employees - Hired a ton of outside leadership which ultimately resulted in a culture shift and many of the people who worked there the longest leaving

Pros

* Flexible working arrangements and quite a bit of autonomy. * A genuinely supportive manager and a collaborative, positive team environment. * Competitive pay for the role and responsibilities.

Cons

In recent years the company has shifted in a direction that feels very different from the organisation I originally joined. * There is a strong emphasis on a “high performance culture”, but there is limited structure or support in place to help employees develop the skills needed to meet those expectations. * Career progression and compensation increases can feel closely tied to visibility rather than the quality or impact of the work itself. * The company is moving away from its fully remote approach. In-person events that were once optional are now mandatory, even for teams that may not directly benefit from them. The locations chosen do not always appear to consider the needs or circumstances of a globally distributed workforce, and employees are now required to go through formal accommodation processes simply to avoid international travel due to health or safety concerns.
