Pros

Amazing People/No Jerks Rules Fun and Healthy Culture Growing Company Unlimited PTO Great Pay/Bonus Structure Very Supportive Best Platform/Product in the market

Cons

Can feel big brother and and appear a bit too excited at first, but once you understand what they are trying to achieve with this culture, you stop viewing it in the light of bad former toxic experiences. Onboarding training is a bit much, especially when stepping into a position where you are expected to contribute immediately. Some understandable limitations on the unlimited PTO (when you can take it, and how much at a time). Manager will work with you to try to make things work (such as flex work while out of town). 9-6 hours are a bit outdated, people should not be measured in hours works but in product produced (for Salaried anyways)

Pros

Great office snacks, free ev charging, cool coworkers

Cons

Out of about 100 AE's only 10 hit Quota, OTE is a joke there. It's possible to hit quota if you are lucky with your inbound leads, but if you want to hit quota every month you have to do something moreso out of the box. I was trained by hard closers and have a lot of expierence with cold calls so i came up with my own script and was getting a demo a day, and was doing a demo a day. The demos did lead to sales as well, so it wasn't a waste of time. I got fired because of a "lack of professionalism" I spoke off script all the time because speaking on script leads you in to the Kool-aid drinkers club, aka not hitting quota consistently. I was fired without warning, even though I was told I had an incredible work ethic and was exceeding the ramp-up numbers. I just didnt match their sales style, they are not looking for salespeople, they are looking for sales associates. They make you work 9-hour days, 1 hour mandatory lunch that has to be taken in the middle of the day. 9-6pm. Their handbook even says you are allowed to take this lunch at 5 pm to go home sooner, but the managers never let that happen. DO NOT BE CREATIVE AT THIS JOB, DRINK THE JUICE.
