Great coworkers, no process, and no vision

Pros

Adwerx has done a great job of hiring people! Coworkers are very smart, eager to help out, and care deeply about seeing each other and the company succeed. There is not a single coworker from Adwerx I would not work with again.

Cons

Management is the only downside I see. Management does not have a clear direction or vision for the company. Because of no vision, projects are started and abandoned a few weeks later, which makes organizational progress difficult and frustrating. In my experience management also blatantly played favorites by bending company policies for those they liked most. Management spends a lot of time hyping culture and values they do not follow, making management hard to trust.

Pros

- Management does their best to set you up for success and make sure you have the tools and resources that you need to do your job well - Excellent culture built around compassion and humility; co-workers who advocate for one another - Blameless post-mortems - Good pay and growth opportunities - Relaxed atmosphere - Encouragement of a healthy work-life balance; management is very respectful of your life outside of work - Emphasis on hiring for the right culture fit, not just hiring based on technical skill-set alone

Cons

None that come to mind.

Pros

Benefits are above average for a company of their size. Nice 401k match, good insurance, generous PTO, fully remote. The product is simple compared to most enterprise software. AEs don’t need any technical or industry-related knowledge to sell here. SDRs generate opportunities fairly well. Middle managers want AEs to cold call but it’s not the main lead source. Post-sale responsibilities for AEs are super light. Another team handles the lengthy implementation process. Account managers retain and upsell customers. If your customers churn after your commission hits, you aren’t impacted at all.

Cons

Compensation is below industry-standard, especially for non-sales roles. Promotion paths are not transparent or based on performance. Leadership focuses on new revenue, not employee development or retention. Quota attainment is bleak and turnover is very high on the enterprise sales team. Over a dozen AEs have quit or been fired in 2021. Favoritism is common on the enterprise team. Middle managers pass unassigned, hot leads to 1 or 2 top producers. They are also ineffective at coaching under-performing AEs. Guess it’s easier to just hire new ones. Every month is the most important sales month. AEs get commission checks 45 days after EOQ though. Product innovation has stalled. New products are not being released. They’re tweaking/renaming the same products they’ve offered for years. Hopefully, that $14.5M funding will make things better. I doubt it’ll be that brilliantly simple though.
