Pros

Management is top notch, product investment is very noticeable and innovation can be felt all around. Nothing beats working for a great boss and I've lucked out I suppose but I notice good mid level management all around. I have reason to believe the negative reviews are either from disgruntled former employees or people who just don't fit in tech.

Cons

Large company acting like a startup can make things seem disjointed at times but that's what makes it a great company as well. Still feeling the effects of the challenging years before Bain acquisition. Several customers and prospects were not given the right attention due to sales people leaving and now trying to fill the gap for lost time. Marketing does not seem to be as good as the marketing teams at our top competitors.

Pros

They hardly ever fire anyone.

Cons

They hardly ever fire anyone. Comp plan is terrible. You get paid on Opportunities sources but there isn't any criteria written down on what makes a discovery call turn into an opportunity. Leading them to cherry-pick deals and choose if you get paid or not. They don't have product market fit. The entire new logo space didn't close anything last year. Getting placed in a good, high paying seat is all dependent upon nepotism. No clear path for growth. Constantly moving the goal post and changing promotion criteria. The promotion path leads you to a role that has historically not closed a deal and the role is a huge pay cut for some BDR's leading to high churn or career BDR's.
