Pros

- There are some really sharp people at Confluent. If you are proactive in learning from your peers, you can grow a lot as a professional and build out a strong network - The pay is good compared to the market

Cons

- There was so much organizational change this year that I don't think any department has fully recovered from it yet. Some seemed like a good change, and others just made no sense (STREAMING PROJECTS). - The levels of constant inspection at this company border on the absurd. It's almost a miracle that anything actually gets done with the limited time we have outside of inspection meetings that we have to attend and inspection materials / processes we have to follow

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.
