Pros

-Free snacks and energy drinks -Ping pong and keg in the office -Decent product

Cons

-CEO has no idea what she is doing. She runs companies to the ground before moving on to her next victim. Do your research on Jive. -They shut down the only office that made them money. But wait... the CFO now CEO made that decision? Based on what logic? -No brand recognition. Have fun spelling where you're calling from every time you pick up the phone. Act-On who? -No marketing, crazy quotas, only 1 rep who hits his quota cuz he's spoon fed from senior leadership. -Cliquey frat boy mentality in Roseville. Not sure if Portland is much better.

Arrogance leads to the fall ...

Pros

I loved working here for a long time. Great people, awesome product, driven team. We set out to win and the company was pulling together to get there.

Cons

Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end. Bad hires were made, which were incredibly divisive and set up the company to spend its energy fighting internal battles instead of focusing on winning marketshare. The product has fallen behind competitors. Don't believe the analyst reports; these folks have no qualms about blatantly lying to press and analysts (& customers) about product roadmap, functionality, etc. And the awards they are promoting for fastest growing companies is based entirely on growth that happened before 2016. Make no mistakes, this leadership is not growing the company - if there was an award for fastest-shrinking company, they'd be a shoo-in for that leadership award.

Pros

It's a great location with semi nice office.

Cons

The people running the place are very self confident inspite of the poor performance. Stock options are worthless. Company missed its window and a lot of us that worked long hours will never see a return. They should have sold 2 years ago when they had an opportunity but greed got in the way.
