Pros

You are provided breakfast, lunch and dinner.

Cons

This hands down was the worst company I have every worked for. The CEO and Sales leadership had their hands in everything. The leadership was extremely immature with business knowledge and decision making. Having a large part of your sales leadership coming from Salesforce should have been a big flag. You have a plethora of tools and brand recognition behind you at Salesforce, you can easily be successful. You have no autonomy. There's no trust. There's defiantly no work life balance. no direction on how to scale. If you really dig into this company you will see high turnover. If truly asked someone in sales/sdr team who they think, they will tell you to run!

Pros

- Modern app and software in a legacy space - Talented employees from impressive backgrounds - Lot of opportunities to get close with co-workers outside of work if that's what you're looking for. Work hard/play hard mentality - Recognition for delivering important work and going above and beyond

Cons

- Bad culture of comparison to peers, without much consideration of scope given, background, strengths, or support given - Don't get the sense that managers and peers want to help you progress. Much more a culture of recognition over support - Favoritism towards longer tenured employees, friends, and teams that are working on "sexy" products (very cliquey) - If you aren't the confident or expressive type, or fit a certain mold or stereotype within the company, you will have a hard time getting noticed, advancing, or have a sense of belonging - Too much emphasis on numbers when getting evaluated - Poor work/life balance without clear communication during hiring process and after of such (you are implicitly expected to work beyond work hours/days or you will suffer via feedback and treatment) - Poor rollout and unfair expectations for AI development
