Pros

There are many, but working with great people who want to drive a disruptive product in an untapped market is kind of the dream for most sales people. If you're looking for a Start-Up where you want to work hard and scale a business with passionate people it's perfect. The product is amazing, and the people building it are even more impressive. Working so closely with them is fascinating to see how quickly you can build a platform of this level. And their dedication to excellence is something to behold. Leadership are dynamic and supportive, not afraid to get in the trenches with you and run throw walls when needed. I've never been worried about failure at Pocketlaw and if you give 100% you'll get it back and then some. I believe this is a product, team and leadership that can go far in this market, but no one who ever built something special said it was easy. Finally, another review mentioned you get to visit Stockholm, which is also true!

Cons

I wouldn't lie and say it's really easy, and that prospects reply to every email and sign on the dotted line after one call. But if you're looking for a Series A Start-Up that's trying to take over its market. Then you'll be right at home. The natural Cons for a business at this size: * You have to work hard (harder than more established companies) * No one is going to hand you success * You have to take on full responsibility for success and failures * As a young company you're responsible for building credibility in your customer's eyes * You have to show up every day * You truly own the sales cycle (which should be exciting) * You have to drive your learning and reflect on why things may not have gone your way * You have to be a positive force, and live with optimism That being said, I've never felt a lack of support or guidance and this was what I hoped for joining an ambitious Series A. It's important to make sure you're ready for that when signing up.

Pros

You get to visit Stockholm, that’s about it.

Cons

Absolutely horrible company to work for. The product is not fit for the market they are trying to sell to, which leads to completely unreasonable expectations being set, which ultimately leads to the failure of the team and them having to cut a load of jobs in order to survive. This has happened the last two years, but of course it’s not their fault at all. You can expect to be cut just before your one year anniversary so they don’t have to give out any shares. Management can be scheming and horrible, telling people what they want to hear whilst slating them behind their back, throwing anyone and everyone under the bus where possible in order to advance their own career and make thesmelves look good to the founders, who are oblivious to the reality. If you’re reading this to understand if you should interview/accept an offer, don’t. Turn around, apply for one of their competitors as it is an exciting industry to be in, everyone else just does it a lot better.

Pros

- Nice environment to work in - Leadership team

Cons

- Accepted a job that in practice was totally different to the one I ended up doing - It was a product for SME's and we were tasked to close enterprise level deals when the company had no penetration
