Pros

Aside from the standard startup perks (Caltrain passes, catered lunches, Eat Club, lunch allowances, happy hours, etc.), you get to work with a team of extremely passionate people. Everyone takes pride in what they do and it shows.

Cons

While sharing wins with the whole company is a great thing, I don't see the point in showing how much the deal was. It's kind of humble-braggy Also, some of the engineers are totally unapproachable if you're not a member of the team.

Pros

Great product, strong leadership, and talented people across the organization. Excellent place to learn enterprise SaaS sales and grow quickly as an SDR. Supportive team culture, good training, and a fast-paced environment with many opportunities to work with large global accounts. Strong compensation and career development opportunities for high performers.

Cons

Since the IBM acquisition, there has been uncertainty around the future structure and career path for SDRs. Communication could be more transparent regarding organizational changes, promotion opportunities, and long-term strategy for the SDR organization.
