Cons
In my personal experience as a SDR there are a few issues about TripActions you should be worried about before taking this position. TripActions has a very obvious culture of burning through talent - firing or forcing sdrs out within 3-8 months. For example - one office lost 8 out of their 9 sdrs within a 3 month period. All of these people did not make it a year. This issue also exists in other departments but i'll try not to speak on departments I did not personally work in. The pay is truly under market value for a company of TA's size and getting OTE is not as common as you would think. Past ramp only a few 2-3 out of each segment actually hit goal. Expect to make less money than what they are telling you. Additionally, expect it to be more likely that you will leave TripActions rather than get an AE promotion. The people who actually make it internally to an AE position are far and few between and almost entirely from this past year when promotions worked much differently. You will be micromanaged on heavy dials / check ins with very little actual development finding yourself stressed, overworked, and without the correct toolset to succeed. Along with stocks you'll probably not stay long enough to actually cash in on. TripActions also has a MAJOR issue with diversity. I don't need to touch much on this - just ask for an office tour before you accept an offer and you'll realize this quickly. If you have reservations about this job - your hunch is probably right. They are growing quickly and burning anyone they need to along the way. p.s. If you are interviewing for an AE role - please reach out to AE's who have left recently. They'll have an accurate description of what you'll be walking into.
