      Pros

      - Disruptive technology that continues to evolve (APM, Logs, etc.) as the technology landscape changes, empowering the sales team to sign prominent companies from a variety of verticals - Supported by some of the most talented / intelligent engineers in the software space. Customers / prospects constantly recognizing and complimenting the team's efforts. (Refreshing coming from a company that lacked this) - Leadership team that is dedicated to rewarding hard working team members - Recently scaled out sales enablement team that is dedicated to the success/ramping of new hires and continued growth of longstanding team members. - Beer cart Friday - Amenities for just about everything - New, Boston office in the heart of financial district - easy commute from just about everywhere.

      Cons

      - Continued growth / scaling leads to change, if you are unable to adapt - might not be the best fit.

      There is nothing I can honestly even put here as a con, it has been the best job I have ever had and I'm so happy I have the opportunity to work here.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -Benefits: gym reimbursement, decent healthcare, fun company outings, free lunches MWF, alcoholic drinks Fridays and lots of snacks and beverage options -Solid, kickass product that works, is loved by the industry and is constantly adapting (adding new languages, integrations, functionalities, etc.) -Product is idolized by the DevOps community -Beautiful office space & standup desks -IPO possibly in the future -Friendly coworkers but they all seem to be quitting...

      Cons

      -Quota is being hit by few if any AEs in the USA yet they continue to hire at rapid rates and fail to adjust the quota. -Very low pay considering few people are earning the commission expected of the role -Leads are distributed at "random" by the sales managers, what this actually means is if you're a favorite you'll do well -Upper management often fails to look into how deals are brought in, causing some AE's to be heavily praised for work they did not do. -SDRs are overlooked and under appreciated when it comes to promotions and deals -Super technical product with little training (though they are working on this, there's a long way to go) -Managers are constantly stressed or in a poor mood due to heavy pressure to hit unattainable goals from upper management. Consequently they don't seem to know how to help their team hit their numbers. -Minimal opportunities to work from home or remotely -White male dominated culture
