Pros

All-in-one growing tool, good product. Company culture is good. Good perks.

Cons

Salary could be better. Like in any company it depends on the team and popularity to get extra RSUs, which you won’t get even if you excel at your role. Leadership scolds people for wanting to quit.

Pros

Good training Good enablement Decent place to begin your career

Cons

Bad leadership Micro management Expectations exceed the ability to make money because you’re capped at 100 accounts 125k OTE is very unrealistic Aside for a handful of outliers CAE’s don’t do well Constant push for activity except you’re called at 100 accounts and you’re angering off the same people over and over again
