Pros

Great people at Cloudflare. Everyone is extremely helpful and collaborative. People stay at the company for a while which is always a great sign. Product is really good and customers really like it.

Cons

The executive team is extremely out of touch. Rarely interacted/heard from roles of VP and above. Lots of big egos with little care for the people they're leading. Compensation is lower than industry standard. Doesn't reflect the success of the company.

Pros

- Strong platform - Mostly friendly and smart people - Good salary, but substandard benefits

Cons

- Strong culture of favoritism: if you’re not an OG or coming in from Palo Alto, you’ll face an uphill battle in sales. - Sales culture is terribly toxic, political, and cliquey, especially with the Palo Alto Networks invasion. - Ridiculous internal processes and poorly designed tools (still use more spreadsheets than tools, quotes can take weeks and I’m not kidding) - Zero sales tools (No Outreach, Gong, good luck even getting Zoom Info) - Substandard BDR team with 12:1 ratios of BDR to AE. Got zero set meetings in over 1 year with our team’s BDR.
