Pros

snacks and drinks, most who work here are good people

Cons

Where to begin.. For a company that prides itself on its "award winning culture" there's a huge disconnect on what actually qualifies as a great culture. Yes, unlimited PTO and catered in lunch once a week is nice, but what employees really want is mentorship, helpfulness, & managers who are hands on and want to see their team be successful. For a small company there is a lot of office politics that you will inevitably be dragged into. Boy's club mentality. Higher management is all white males besides *surprise* marketing. Men to woman ratio is very high, with no active efforts to level the ratio. No mentorship programs. No career mapping, and very little promoting/hiring from within the company. Very high turn over, every week several people leave. You will work with people who try to get ahead at their coworkers expense. Very caddy behavior from those who have been at the Chicago office since it's inception (a little over 1 1/2 years ago) those who started in the beginning stick together.

Pros

Showpad is a recognized leader in sales enablement and revenue enablement, competing with companies like Highspot. The product solves a real problem for sales and marketing teams, making it easier to articulate value

Cons

From my perspective, the sales enablement space feels very crowded, with strong competitors like Highspot and Seismic making it difficult to stand out. I also found the culture lacking compared to larger tech companies, with limited collaboration across teams and not much of a strong company identity or sense of community.
