Pros

Pretty good pay, remote work for a lot of us, lunch

Cons

Culture feels fake, job security is precarious and they lay people off even when they say there will be no layoffs. They rescinded at least one job offer during my time there too

Pros

Some coworkers are genuinely supportive and just as motivated to succeed, especially other SDRs who are trying to make the best of the situation. The product itself has market demand, which makes conversations with prospects easier than selling something with no use case.

Cons

This role has an extremely high churn rate, among SDRs, with many reps being placed on PIPs and terminated before being given a fair chance to hit quota, often without earning commission. Expectations are aggressive and unsustainable, with many reps making 150 to 250 calls a day while repeatedly contacting the same prospects and accounts with little to no cool-off period. SDRs are encouraged to call back within days or a week and in some cases use a different name so prospects believe they are speaking to someone new, which creates ethical concerns and frustration on both sides. The environment feels more like a frat or bro-style call center than a professional sales organization. The sales pit frequently plays inappropriate and provocative music, which has made people in other departments, especially some women, uncomfortable. Training and support are minimal, management relies heavily on pressure and extreme favoritism, and SDRs are treated as disposable rather than developed. This may serve as a short-term crash course for brand new grads, but it is not a healthy or sustainable environment for experienced professionals seeking stability, mentorship, or long-term growth. Finally, it is unmotivating when there are favored reps who only hit around ten percent of quota and still get promoted over SDRs who are outperforming them. The general rule of thumb is that if you do not move out of the corporate account pool within the first month or two, you are essentially doomed, as you will burn through your accounts and eventually be fired when you miss quota.

Chaos From the Top Down

Pros

There are definitely talented and hardworking people across the organization, and the office environment has fostered a strong sense of connection among employees. A lot of those relationships seem to have formed through navigating the toxic unpredictability of the company together. Compensation incentives, including bonuses, have been nice, and the period of rapid growth last year created a genuinely energizing atmosphere. The company’s mission and customer impact also contributed to a sense of purpose and motivation for many employees. Additionally, the investment in office spaces and in-person collaboration was nice.

Cons

The organization has experienced repeated restructuring over a relatively short period, including multiple rounds of layoffs and significant employee turnover. The pace of departures across teams has created MAJOR concerns about long-term stability and leadership direction. There also appears to be a noticeable lack of diversity across the company, particularly in female representation. From a market perspective, the company’s competitive advantage seems less differentiated than it once was. Innovation has slowed, and many competitors are close or already offering similar function, making it harder to see a strong forward-looking vision for the business.
