Cons
While there are many positives to working for a SaaS company in hyper-growth, BirdEye does not have that feel or benefit. The sales operation is run in way where you are worked until you are burned out. You receive a 3 month ramp quota (which is great) and are likely to hit and exceed quota in that time. You're commission will be through the roof and you will think this is the greatest place ever. This is also the time they ask new employees to leave Glassdoor reviews (hence the high rating). Unfortunately those will be the best times for your bank account. The monthly quotas only adjust upward based on working days in the month and are unrealistic. It is a giant Inside Sales "factory". The work/life balance is not one you would expect from other young tech companies in DFW or even ones with Silicon Valley roots. PTO is very limited and you are required to use it for a sick day. The office location is in Las Colinas which is inconvenient for the young staff they continue to hire. Most live in Dallas and the commute each day can be a burden.
