Fantastic company / high intensity

Vice president of marketing

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great company culture and AMAZING leadership from Megan C. Impressive to witness. Great marketing team with a good collaboration mindset and high renewed energy necessary with all going on. After several years being overlooked in a pure tech environment, marketing is now one of the central pieces of the transformation thanks to new management. Future is bright with challenges but strategy is the right one. Psychological Safety. You can be yourselves and your opinion will always be valued. Fantastic culture of feedback that keeps you growing.

Cons

High pace high energy. Could be tiring but also very rewarding. You live several lives at once. In a full transformation mode so obviously some executional risks ahead. Career path is on you rather than on the company. That works for some people but does not for others. For VP and above roles, global coverage EMEA/APAC and AMER could be very demanding.

'Hit your activities'

Business Outlook

Pros

Good people overall, amazing office, great benefits, french roots.

Cons

- The product is useless for companies who spend less than 10k a month. You have no choice but to reach out to small businesses and sell them on false hope in order to hit quota. - Outreach methods are invasive. Using ZoomInfo to find every email with a marketing title attached just to hit your 'activities' isn't an effective strategy nor in your favor as far as development goes. - Middle management (not all) cliquey, judgmental, unapproachable and unprofessional.
