Pros

Great benefits, ESPP, RSU, and healthcare, great training and many avenues to explore. Good commission if deals close

Cons

Low salary, Lacks salary increases for internal promotion, and in some cases deductions. Very high turnover rate on some teams, and leadership would rather churn reps than train.

Pros

Market-Leading Product: I found that selling CrowdStrike's Falcon platform was easier because it's already a top product in cybersecurity. I didn't have to convince people of its value since its reputation often preceded it, which led to shorter sales cycles and higher close rates. Strong Compensation: The compensation plan was great. I had a strong base salary and uncapped commissions, which meant as a high-performer, I could earn a significant income. Career Growth: I saw that the company really does promote from within. There were clear paths for me to advance my career, whether it was into management, a different territory, or a more specialized sales position.

Cons

High-Pressure Environment: The sales culture at CrowdStrike was very competitive. The quotas were challenging, and there was a constant focus on performance. If I didn't consistently hit my targets, the environment felt incredibly stressful and challenging. Market Saturation: Even though CrowdStrike is a leader, I faced a lot of intense competition. The cybersecurity market is very crowded, which made prospecting and closing deals a significant challenge.
