Pros

Remote has an excellent product. With all the drama going on with Deel and Rippling, they are in a great position to take significant market share.

Cons

The sales and marketing leadership is significantly lacking. The company let go of their CRO and CMO, and didn't bother to replace either. Instead, the co-founder is moonlighting as CRO, despite clearly not being a good fit for the role. It's sad to see a company that could be so much more successful, squander such a huge opportunity. The marketing is non-existent in the US, with a very low flow of inbound leads. The quotas are mostly unattainable, with about a 20% attainment rate in the US as well. Seems like this company decided that the European market is the only one they care about, and have missed out on a significant opportunity in the US.

Multiple interviews with people having different partnership roles gives a good idea of how the communication goes internally and the overall company culture

If you're looking for a quick hire, having multiple interviews is not for you
