Pros

- Managers routinely have 1 on 1's with employees. -Office location -Product has a good reputation - Pingpong table -Nice staff (below management team) -This could be a good starting point for a sales career but that's about it. You will learn some good fundamentals but it's really nothing more than a minimum wage paycheck. -Do you want to make great money as an Account Executive? Look elsewhere.

Cons

- Staff is walking on eggshells. Management is self-serving. -Broken promises to my coworkers on a variety of issues. Three employees were hired with the expectation of flexible hours and the ability to occasionally work from home to be with their children. This was a lie and someone has since been fired because of this conflict -The contract you sign is near worthless. Management increases your quota as they please while imposing restrictions on the sales team. They do not value hard work and achievement like a startup should. - Terrible expectation setting. Many employees have been sold false promises of equity in the company, benefits, upward mobility, growth plans. -Account Executives regularly miss out on their hard earned commission due to lack of customer support on the front end which causes frequent customer churn. -Hiring people with little relevant experience. - Expected to work and only work when in the office. No downtime. This is not a "work hard, play hard" atmosphere. -Management far too focused on saving money.

Pros

- downtown location - a lot of great places to eat in this King St W./Spadina location - you can control the Sonos jukebox speaker in the office and listen to your own playlists

Cons

- an executive team that keeps making promises they can't keep, including getting a raise only to be told that we have to wait until series B comes along (seriously still using this excuse?) or an employee share ownership program, that I don't believe is ever going to happen, and don't get me started on the lack of benefits, - a product and engineering team that makes changes whenever they feel like it, often leaving customers out in the lurch or the rest of us scratching our heads wondering why the changes were not communicated, - a success team in shambles after loosing their management talent (from top to bottom); the Toronto team is now being led by a junior who has absolutely zero experience managing/leading, - a support team that tries their best but is in dire need of more resources, - a sales organization with deep rooted issues, stemming mostly from very aggressive targets and a lack of empathetic leadership,
