Pros

-Great product -Free Lunch twice a week -"Open door" policy with leadership

Cons

-Majorly lacking internal efficiency when it comes to getting deals approved/contracts signed. It was harder to get internal approval than it was to get a signature from the would be customer. -Opened a SF office to attract city talent, only to close the office a few months later because all of the Sales people who worked there left the company. -Horrible onboarding practices (They didn't really exist), it was more of a "figure it out yourself" environment. -No alignment between marketing and sales teams. -No sense of culture and community other than awkward BBQ happy hours once a qtr.

Pros

Great benefits and great people to work with. The product itself is a great and superior product.

Cons

No training. No pipeline. No real support for SMB. You are basically a glorified SDR. Any real leads come from events or if you have good install base accounts. Hardly any good inbounds come and and if you do get a good and decent size inbound, they take it away from you to give to a mid-market rep. The juice isn't worth the squeeze. If you don't mind constantly grinding, go for it. Otherwise, I would recommend looking else where.
