Pros

CIQ is a great place to work for the most part! Everyone is friendly and the company itself is dedicated to continuous improvement. Involved founders keep us on the right track but do not dictate work from the top down. The product is exciting, and we are endeavoring to grow as fast as our market share is! If individuals have an idea, need something, or are ready to move roles (internally or externally), I have never seen anything other than an open and supportive leadership team. That is really really really hard to find, especially in such a fast-moving market.

Cons

The company has not avoided the typical startup growing pains. Definitely trying to work on it, but some teams will have better work-life balance than others as our hiring and training works to keep pace with the demand we're experiencing.

Pros

Product solves real problems for customers and has strong market fit Talented Team Exposure to complex enterprise customers Remote-friendly work environment

Cons

Portfolio sizes are unrealistic for the level of strategic engagement expected. Balancing 40-50+ accounts simultaneously while managing multiple concurrent implementations and escalations leads to inevitable burnout Lack of structured support or coaching when struggling with workload - more of a "sink or swim" culture Inconsistent treatment across the team regarding account distribution, promotion opportunities, and performance expectations Several rounds of restructuring have negatively impacted morale and team stability They ask for more and more with less and less Administrative and operational issues fall on individual contributors to resolve, even when caused by company-level decisions Internal mobility is very limited - external candidates are often brought in for roles that existing team members deserve CEO's are too involved
