Pros

I think they still give away snacks?

Cons

The CEO appears to have some kind of dementia as he frequently repeats himself on the morning meetings forgetting what he had told the entire staff previously. The salaries have been changed and it is very easy for the higher ups to "reorganize" so you are no longer needed regardless of tenure. This is basically a disguised lay-off. It seem that VISTA has no idea who actually built this company.

Since we are still growing, a lot of items are repeated during Daily Briefings so new Knowsters are kept in the loop. Compensation plans have changed, and we are working on updating them based on employee feedback for 2025. Wishing you all the best in your future endeavors.

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.
