Pros

Unlimited PTO, Remote work, Travel

Cons

Where do I start? The 1am meetings followed by 7am meetings the following day seem a good place. This is a global company without regional division, which means you will be expected to work around the clock. You will have to sleep during the day to get any sleep at all. Executive management is concerned only with growth, even if at the expense of employee health, and without regard to feasibility. Despite being told "no," sales will promise moon to earn and keep business (which is difficult sometimes), and you will be forced to work your knuckles to the bone to make it happen. When it fails, as you said it would, you will still take heat because leadership does not stand up for its employees. There is no clear vision, no process. Hope you enjoy spending 4-8 hours a week doing nothing but PowerPoint, because it seems to be the only way information is communicated. Documentation isn't kept, let alone read. There is no such thing as work life balance here. You will be subject to meetings at every hour of the day. Say no? You're not a team player. Hiring practices are in utter disarray, as the criminally understaffed HR cannot get a job offer to a candidate in time for them to accept it. By the time one goes out, they've likely moved on. Red. Tape. Everywhere. Purchasing decisions must go through 8 levels of approval to be made. This is not an exaggeration. Run.

Pros

Good product for niche environments

Cons

The company does not value employees who have gotten them to where they are. They pay outside people with less experience significantly more than what they pay top producers and employees who have been with the company longer. When confronted about it they will lie, avoid or make excuses. They undervalue their employees and overvalue the senior leadership who is only concerned about what AI initiative is next, even though none of the current ones are working. Also losing significant traction in the one are they had been good at, MSP's
