Pros

Great Product Leader in the market Big name, big promises that can be music to customers ears Easy to sell Great training, sales regimen Smart peers, driven, best sales tactics and techniques are learned here

Cons

-VERY below average pay -VERY fast paced -Micro-managed to the bone, be ready for morning calls and end of day calls DAILY. -Activity and KPI are tracked and reports are ran daily -Pipeline is ALWAYS a concern, even after you close a ton of deals -Fast burn out for employees -Management breathes down your neck on every deal -Your success is dependent on what territory you have and how much partner activity are in those territories -Management will pretend they listen but will not push for change, we will have the same complaint still unresolved after over a year -Admin work required from every AE monthly, fishing for new prospects that dont exist as prior reps have sprayed and prayed their territory. -Internal promotion = lower pay

CrowdStrike Response

Thank you for your detailed feedback. It's great to hear your appreciation for our people and product. That said, we never like hearing that someone's experience at CrowdStrike wasn't entirely positive and are disheartened that you did not feel entirely supported and heard while working here. Making sure our employees feel respected is a top priority. We appreciate the feedback and will pass these comments along to the team. Wishing you the best.
