Pros

1. Professional Growth Opportunities: • Working at a world-leading company in data and analytics allowed me to expand my professional expertise and develop new skills. 2. Valuable Relationships: • I had the privilege of working with exceptional people, both colleagues and leaders, who greatly contributed to my growth. 3. Significant Achievements: • We contributed to channel business growth, implementing profiling strategies that drove positive results. 4. Cultural Experience: • The camaraderie with the LATAM team was exceptional, leaving me with fond memories of amazing individuals.

Cons

1. Strategic and Product Limitations: • Lack of a winning product: The absence of a competitive SaaS offering limited market opportunities. • Deficiencies in support: Low-quality technical support negatively impacted customer and partner experiences. • Credit management issues with channels: These challenges complicated partner relationships and hindered operations. 2. Corporate Culture and Leadership: • Investor-focused strategy: The company’s approach seemed overly focused on financial metrics, often neglecting employees and customers. • Weak sales leadership in SSA: Poor management of territories and opportunities led to demotivation among sales teams. • Ineffective reporting structure: Dependence on U.S.-based structures added little value to local operations. 3. Service Strategy Challenges: • The lack of a clear strategy for services and channel support limited the development of the partner ecosystem.
