Pros

-The product sells itself, and it is applicable to any business. -People are amazing - this is the main reason why most employees love working here -Great role to get your feet wet in the sales world

Cons

Pay is EXTREMELY low -Base pay is about 30-50% lower than most competitors/tech companies in Seattle. Unacceptably low given the current levels of inflation. -38-45K base is practically an unlivable wage in Seattle as is, and this issue has been amplified in the past year. -Reps should not have to live with their parents to avoid living paycheck to paycheck.

Pros

- Great benefits (good insurance, 401k, free therapy sessions, wellness stipend) - Able to get a job with little to no sales experience - Good work life balance

Cons

- Almost impossible if you want to move out of sales into any other department (marketing, HR, etc) - extremely low base pay considering the cost of living in Seattle (or SF & Chicago), especially in comparison to other tech companies base pay of SDRs - pretend to have a diverse workplace when in reality most of the people hired are just friends of friends - they continue to either raise quotas or keep them impossibly high because they were based on peak Covid numbers - with such high quotas only a small percent of SDRs are able to consistently hit every month - it’s clear that management mostly cares about bringing in more money while paying employees low wages

Thank you for writing a review. It's good to hear you enjoy the benefits and the work/life balance. We will share your concerns about diversity and quotas with leadership. As for compensation, we look at total rewards (which includes equity). However, we will share this feedback as well.

Thank you very much for writing a review. We will be sharing your review with our HR leadership as well as Sales leadership. Over 93% of our employees will be able to work at least 50% of the time when we reopen our offices globally. The designations – Flex, Remote and In Office – are assigned at the role level based on business and team needs. There is some flexibility in that employees can discuss more generous remote work arrangements with their manager depending on individual, team and business needs. There is more information about this in the Back to Better Employee FAQ on the Hub (our intranet). We’d also encourage you to read more about the Internal Job Transfer process and Career ladders on the Talent Development site on the Hub if you do wish to make an internal move. Finally, we will share your comments regarding the culture not being inclusive with leadership as well so that those concerns can be addressed.
