Pros

Smart people, great culture -- real digital start up DNA -- spending every day helping banks with the most important thing in their future -- digital client interactions.

Cons

Backbase is growing very rapidly -- so private life has to suffer a bit now and then. Also, the influx of new people and new customers requires constant readjustment and creativity. But, this is improving, we are slowly finding ways to scale.

Pros

One of the best jobs I've ever had. Unfortunately my role got cut due to layoffs but I would have stayed here for years if that weren't the case. Great autonomy to employees, great collaboration, communication and organization. Good leadership.

Cons

Unexpected rounds of layoffs, but it was the case in tech for a while.

Pros

not many exist for sales execs in the US

Cons

lack of product fit in US market, leadership changes direction and strategy often, sales rigor is off the charts (MEDDPICC on steriods, etc)
