Pros

You can always learn from every situation and come out stronger.

Cons

I have never left a company with so many people who deeply hate the place, it’s not one team which suggest the problems are deeper rooted. In my time there, I felt as though there was a culture of bullying from the top. Witnessing bullying from leadership – even seeing a founder break a colleague into tears over a minor transgression. It felt as though the firm was accepting of half truths – gaslighting was an art form at Beamery. In my experience, this company is focused on selling at any cost, there was a scorched earth marketing policy where no deal should ever be lost based on functionality. If that functionality didn’t exist – we’d claim we we’re working on an API to close the gap – but any MSA worded it incredibly carefully to provide protection to Beamery. The net result is carnage for everyone involved. Sales: You are only as good as who will speak to you. You may sell short term. But may struggle with your reputation in HR Tech long term. Engineering: Overpromised functionality means every sprint you will have shifting priorities on what is becoming a legacy codebase. But the expectation remained to deliver in all directions and satisfy the customer. Solution Delivery Consultant: You are given a client who is expecting the moon and have been promised endless functionality but will not have the functionality to make the client happy. But expected by leadership to deliver happy clients. Customer Success: Most likely a client will already be disappointed with the implementation so you are adopting a client who will complain and put stress on the relationship. But expected to prevent clients from churning. Employee churn: There are some comments on here disputing the levels of churn within the organization. I vividly remember a week where at least one employee resigned every day of the week, which for a company of 200 was huge. LinkedIn analytics will also demonstrate months where 30 people were hired, but there was no growth in total number of employees.
