Pros

Very good product that outperforms competitors in the space.

Cons

This sales organization is a sweatshop. Management treats their AE’s like children and is unbelievably out of touch. You will be required to be in office early and leave late. Extremely frowned upon to leave at the normal time. Very frat bro type culture with constant negativity and hate towards anyone who doesn’t fit their ideology of a rep. Accounts and territories have been churned dozens of times and every account has had 5+ reps already draining it. Extremely hard to hit number for 75% of AE’s. You will get absolutely zero work life balance here. Feels almost like an internship. Consistent threats of losing your job by management if you are not performing. Your activity will be tracked and you will be reprimanded if you do not have slack open and respond within minutes. Off the clock harassment from upper management to work on accounts including weekends. STAY AWAY
