Pros

Flexible, good work life balance. I really appreciate leadership realizing that life isn't black and white, and make room for doctors appointments, family matters, etc. I respect our C levels and think that they are kind, moral people.

Cons

Toxic culture fueled on nepotism and lots of ego. The culture is stale and lacking, and the opportunity for advancement is limited based on location. This has been a great name to put on my resume, but I'd say the learning experiences have been dismal.

Pros

Competitive compensation and decent earning potential depending on segment. Opportunity to manage complex deal cycles. Broad product suite allows for cross-sell and solution-based selling. Active founder-led company

Cons

Poor management quality and leadership decisions can impact morale. Culture can feel less dull and lack energy especially compared to faster-growing tech companies. Selling the product can feel little exciting. Internal processes and decision-making can feel bureaucratic.
