Pros

-Good benefits - Nice office location

Cons

-It is not common to get raises -Bad management - Pay is not competitive - New methods are launched before they are vetted and the only ones that suffer are the bottom of the totem pole. -Promotions are very much based on personality and who likes you over your actual skills. They don't have any career advancement model, and all they say is speak to other managers of where you want to go.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are always looking for strategies to achieve better results across our organization for our customers, and our commitment to a strong balance sheet has prevented us from some of the current over-hiring-and-then-laying-off actions of many companies in tech. Recently we held our annual three-day ‘Sales Kick Off’ in Orlando with the entire sales team. During this in-person event, our team experienced intensive training sessions on our products, learned about new methods, and had the opportunity to meet each other, have a lot of fun, and be inspired. As we continue to grow our sales team, our compensation practices have attracted more than 50 great sales team members over the past six months. One of our Company Values is about Candid Conversations, and we value our employee's honest opinions about company decisions and practices. Therefore, we welcome this kind of feedback. If you’d like to discuss this further, please don't hesitate to contact HR@egnyte.com so that we can continue to improve all employees’ experience. Warm Regards, Reece Rovig - Head of Sales, Americas

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.
