Pros

-Really great product -Amazing colleagues -Good TAM with market fit -WFH benefits -Will fly you to conferences, such as Vegas etc.

Cons

Where to begin.... -No diversity, all white men worked here. 1 female in the sales department -Leadership here is a mess. ZERO company communication. People would leave and there was no communication internally about it. -Leadership just treated employees like trash. Like we are totally disposable -Training/Onboarding was less than a week. Then you are yelled at for not booking meetings etc because you aren't implementing XYZ or know XYZ about the product. -Stress on Personalization but not training on "how to personalize" -Product is VERY dense. There is a very long curve to learn. With a poor onboarding process and lack of coaching - it makes selling quite difficult -Leadership will fire people indiscriminately with no remorse or help to find a new job. They fired an employee who was on vacation... -The CEO and Co-founder are totally aloof. Fantastic people I am sure, but they let managers run rampant on employees. -Wrote an email to the CEO about poor treatment by my boss and heard nothing. -Minimal pipeline to build. I felt bad for the AE's here. Sellers here work 3-7 deals that seem to take forever to close. Those guys won't see a commission check for several months. Same with the BDRs -No benefits. No 401k. No health benefits, no lunch benefits.

Pros

A great team with really outstanding people, a very big range of opportunities, and access to all possible technical top-notch tools, including the most relevant AI tools, of course. In this setup and environment, you never feel stagnant; you get real challenges and all the necessary support and enablement to deal with them and develop yourself every day. I'm not gonna lie, it's not a place for everyone, it's a place for chosen people, A-players who really enjoy being in a fast-paced organization, always learning, always ready to go the extra mile to achieve greater things. Very important pros: a competitive salary + stock option plans (shares)!

Cons

- Alignment between different high-level managers (sometimes it's a distracting blocker) - Communication from the C-level
