Pros

Wonderful CEO who knows the market space, knows the industry, knows our product, understands the unique characteristics of the different areas of this company, and does not micro-manage - Mirko gives leaders and employees room leverage their experience, use their judgement, and do their job! CRO has a remarkable pedigree and that is clear in his leadership of our sales efforts - really knows his stuff Culture - adjectives attached to this word have become cliche - talk is cheap - my personal experience here has been a fantastic culture. Even across individual contributors, there is a "we first, not me first" mindset. Employees here recognize that we must all work productively together to reach a critical event like IPO Product is astounding and really stands alone in the market. A strong team through the company with careful attention to hiring A-players who know how to succeed both individually and within a broader team. (A does not stand for A-holes!)

Cons

Name recognition when selling. The established industry goliath's routinely trigger FUD around our being three years old. Biggest challenge is getting a prospect to hear us. Once they do, we have great success
