Avoid at all cost

Pros

technology and people wise is good, so many ambitious talented people to work with but you are just a number to them, avoid at all cost

Cons

People are basically good but to be survive in such toxic environments push them become unethical or they already are. The management is terrible , bunch of people bluffing each other to climb the ladder, the higher the toxic, they don’t have experience to deal direct with customer but story telling to gang up and favours on each other, those who did facing customer role are pity to have follow those plan that talk big but doesn’t work, facing angry customer or partner but still need to keep achieve the forever changing KPI and comp plan, hence lots of unethical behaviour especially the new group of leadership after Thomas Bravo buyout , they are just friends of friend to make sure it being watch and keep show on, they basically not competent and not knowing industry or product, instead of previous young leader group, both dangerous for stakeholders.Listen to those negative reviews, it worth to take in why it full of toxic, avoid this sinking ship at all cost.
