Darktrace reviews

- Young company culture / young management - Useless business development team - Monthly quota is brutal and will annoy clients - Priced out of conversations (but not really since Darktrace almost always comes down with discounts) - Terrible processes - Commission structure is misleading to new hires (2.5% up front, 2.5% after 1 year) Many reviews on this site are not mentioning that Darktrace is quite patient with sales reps and gives amble time to show improvement and hit goals. If after a year you are consistently not performing you will be put on PIP. Sales is unlike other jobs, where if you don’t succeed, you have management make you feel replaceable. Its unfortunately the case in other sales roles I have had.

- if you have a strong background in sales, technology & Cybersecurity, this job is not for you. -all of management are in their 20s, they have stumbled into the role and doing the best they can but their only experience is school, so you will get the school vibe (if that's your thing) - zero mentorship (due to child leadership) - commission structure is basically fraud. You won't get to see it before you sign on. You get half of your already low comp an entire year later... No you don't have access if you quit. - this is one reason they will overhire new grads and create a toxic environment so you quit before they have to pay up. Great model for the company actually. But for the AEs, you're better off taking this off your resume as soon as you're done. Their reputation in the market is not stellar. You will still take the job, despite these reviews, which is cool, I did too. Just be prepared for an extremely toxic work environment.
