Pros

- Cutting Edge Products (sometimes) - Solid pay - Remote - Good Benefits

Cons

- Relatively little job security - Bogged down by woeful internal processes (2/3 of my day is just navigating the internal hellscape) - Undercooked go-to-market portfolio, almost across the board. Ever since ignominiously and unexpectedly firing their CRO Jason Andrews, a black cloud has loomed over this company. Now, there is fear amidst process change, and burdensome new internal procedures for all things "sales." Not surprised we're missing our targets across the board.. but of course the pain will mostly be felt at the mid-management and lower blue-collar level.

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.
