Pros

great company vision awesome products dominating cloud security market Great healthcare (company pays deductible and there's 0% co-insurance) Pre IPO stock is $$$$$$$$ company cons: no 401k matching limited benefits

Cons

Sales leaders with "old school mentality." Everyone is treated like a number. Toxic attitude comes straight from the top - the CEO publicly berates leaders in 1000+ people chats and tells them to "do their jobs" The sales org is weird and anonymous. Salesops will transfer your account to the inbound team overnight and never tell you. The management has done shady stuff like promote dummy leaders instead of top performers because they "rocked the boat." Even though the company is doing well there's a mass exodus and AEs are dropping like flies No territories - "build your own territory" aka 150 accounts that you find in salesforce (all of the good accounts having already been taken) - ROE is to request accounts from each other if they have no salesforce activity in 90 days (cutthroat sniping and constant pressure to keep up activity) No inbound leads - if an account inbounds, you lose the account to the inbound sales org (regardless of how long you've been outbounding to them) - if an account inbounds and you have activity in the last 14 days (unlikely), you get 50% ACV credit, and still lose the account bottom line, if you thrive off extreme competition and don't mind unnecessary drama, you'll do great at Cloudflare

Pros

- Competitive pay - Decent reputation that could open up other opportunities

Cons

Negative reviews detailing specific problems at Cloudflare are disappearing. Be VERY skeptical of employers who are this terrified of transparency.
