      Startup hubris...

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Core product (Lead) is market-leading. Other solutions are either withering on the vine or have big question marks around them. Rank and file employees are on the whole wonderful, keen to try and make this work and doing their best to survive growing pains that have become extended and tortuous. Unsurprisingly, management is where the challenge is... Also, be very skeptical of the many 5 star reviews that seem to have been posted within the same 2-3 days.

      Cons

      Much has been written elsewhere, but I think the biggest challenges and failings are: - trying to be a pure SaaS company when you are not; - co-founders and a small senior leadership clique that forces out any dissenting opinion and re-boots GTM every 6 months; - stressed out middle-managers trying to reconcile lofty values with irrational actions. Just one example: Uplift (which is genuinely a fantastic event) has become the focal point for generating new business, but every year sales territories get reshuffled 6-8 weeks beforehand, which means AE's either never get to capitalize on the invitations they managed to secure (from accounts they no longer own), or have next to no lead time to attract key stakeholders in their new accounts. This literally happens every year - the definition of insanity!

      Great People and Mission

      Pros

      - smartest, most thoughtful and kind people I've worked with. - Very intentional culture - all hands calls where strategy is discussed are always so transparent and insightful - fantastic mission and strong direction for the company

      Cons

      - intense work culture - you need to have boundaries and be able to stay firm on them or the work will not stop. My advice is to not attach your value/worth to the work and find intrinsic motivation for the work. As other reviews have stated, it is not for everyone but the company is transparent about that - work will at times be intense and difficult, but that is at times necessary to accomplish what the company wants to
