Pros

* Very technical co-workers * Fantastic healthcare benefits * Interesting internal presentations * There are a lot of opportunities to be challenged (not just work projects, but technical reading groups, technical presentations, etc.) * There's a lot of work to be done * I'm never the smartest person in the room * I have a lot of autonomy in how I work and what I work on

Cons

There are a few growing pains as Cloudflare figures out how to be a bigger company. There's a lack of cohesion in product design and development (but this is being addressed).

Thanks for this review - and the honest comments around growing pains. It's true that our growth in some places outpaced our systems and processes. It's fun to build and grow and we have work to do to fill the gaps. -janet

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.
