Pros

Cloudbeds offers a strong product and the flexibility of remote work.

Cons

The internal sales culture is deeply flawed. From day one I felt a pervasive sense of favoritism that impacted promotions, opportunities, and daily dynamics—success often feels tied more to internal politics than performance. Sales, in particular, is set up to fail with no real product training, unrealistic quotas, and little meaningful support. Morale and performance suffer across the majority of the team as accountability is wildly misdirected and recognition is uncommon and uneven. While there are talented, well-intentioned people across the organization, the toxic dynamics within the sales team, starting at the highest level, ultimately undermine their efforts and make it difficult to succeed or grow.

Pros

This can be a great opportunity for someone who enjoys a high-performance environment. The focus is mainly on prospecting, cold outreach, and closing new business. I’ve improved my skills in running product demos and following up with potential clients. Plus, the technology is solid with interesting features and integrations.

Cons

Success isn’t automatic; building confidence in sales requires persistence and consistency.

Pros

I cannot think of a single pro about this company. At least my coworkers have been great to work with, I guess.

Cons

Expectations are unbelievably high, but support is practically nonexistent. I was given no training, yet was immediately expected to handle complex tasks under relentless pressure with absolutely no room for mistakes. The pay is not even decent, and it falls far below what other companies are offering.
