Canadian Sales People Beware

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Very good product, CDN and WAF are used by companies globally. Many of different products to sell. Remote work. (product is the entire reason for the 2 stars rating)

Cons

Terrible Canadian sales leadership the attitude is for passing responsibility for nearly every request made for assistance or help improving how we do our jobs. Have had meetings where leaders rant, complain, and make the team feel terrible for voicing concerns or questioning certain ways of doing things. Poor internal tools/workflows/processes making it difficult to complete even the most basic day to day tasks required to do the job. Nobody cares. Customer/technical support can take weeks and weeks. Feel bad for my customer sometimes. **Biggest con** The feeling from leadership and company hiring/firing patterns that we are expendable, I've seen many good people come and go in my years here. Some too soon, with little warning or help to improve at their job. I write this review to give people considering this job for themselves and their families something to think about. It might be stressful and short term for you if the things listed in this review matter to you.

Company is growing Stock tends to be on the up Products work majority of the time Solutions Engineering team is very good and help where they can

Cons

Accounts are unfairly assigned to reps here for longer - so you don't get your full comp Finance runs the company and sets the targets and doesn't understand the real world - so you don't get your full comp Targets are unrealistic and you have no support - so you don't get your full comp AE's are expected to do new logo, expansion, customer care, basically everything - so you don't get your full comp Forced to run things through partners who are not incentivised to work with you - so you don't get your full comp CSM is non-existent and understaffed - so you don't get your full comp Marketing (other than events) provides no help at all and have different pipeline targets - so you don't get your full comp BDR's are not aligned with AE's and are doing quantity vs quality - so you don't get your full comp Exec leadership has no diversity and is a boys club all from Palo Alto or Altyrex - so you don't get your full comp Culture of fear of losing your job so you work out of fear - so you don't get your full comp Undercover layoffs which are not announced publicly so the company looks good No career path for majority of employees
