Pros

Getting to work with a high performing team. I have gained a network, mentor, and friends.

Cons

-low compensation. I have been at the company for 2 years and have only received a comp increase once. Meanwhile, my responsibilities have increased monthly. -No resources for growth and promotion. You are worked so hard that you have no extra time to utilize the resources like Linkedin learning to help you grow your skillset -bad product. The product can't support the needs of the customer nor the needs of the team to complete basic actions. -no clear plan on where we are going -no benefits, besides the healthcare, no good or useful benefits -no work/life balance I knew some of these cons existed before accepting my offer. I was hopeful that the company was moving in a direction where they were taking the feedback from the engagement survey seriously. Unfortunately, instead of moving forward, we are moving backward. Not only would I not recommend someone to work here, but I also wouldn't recommend the services for a small business.

Pros

Good happy hour culture Comp for sales reps above industry norm for SMB Great marketing and brand

Cons

Look at the reviews before 2025 and look at them now. Look who was brought in since in leadership. There’s your answer. About a dozen people with ~7-10 years of tenure just left because it became unbearable. These are people leaving after getting promotions and big raises. Big red flag. The org is being run by someone who changes his mind every other week and copy and pastes “strategy” from ChatGPT. This person also constantly publicly undermines and insults managers and reps at team outings and in meetings. It’s extremely sad to see this former tech unicorn becoming a shell of itself. The worst part is senior leadership gaslights us when complaints are raised or the feedback on the engagement survey is terrible. I am unsure why C suite hasn’t stepped in to stop the bleeding. Alot of pandering about “whats changed and how great things are”. Longest tenured reps are fed leads under the table and emboldened to be toxic to more junior teammates, and snaking their leads away. The lack of professionalism here is astounding. This leads to cultural rot. The pay is good though especially once you hit 2+ years and have pipeline, so people stay with golden handcuffs. Half the managers are checked out and coasting, though there are definitely a small handful that truly care about their team and keep morale as high as possible. Look elsewhere.
