Pros

The leadership principles really do keep the business focussed, the writing culture saves sitting in meetings where the presenter hasn’t clarified what their idea is yet. Lots of opportunities to grow, try new things and skill up on cloud.

Cons

As with any employer you get good teams to be and less good teams. They work you hard for your money and you get what you put in.

Pros

-Great place to learn -Work with some of the smartest people in the industry -Flexibility/autonomy in schedule (not impacted by RTO)

Cons

-Constant reorgs and shifts in leadership: I went through a reorg almost every January and had 6 managers in 2.5 years. Inconsistent leadership makes it hard to feel aligned to a company/team vision or to feel supported. -Promotions are highly political and your manager plays a huge role in whether you advance. Managers rarely have career conversations with reps, which leaves little real path for growth. Good managers want to see their team develop and help them get there. -Comp plan changes reduced sellers' ability to accelerate and lowered pay year over year. Comp plans are dictated by Operations, not Sales Leadership.
