Pros

Office lunch x3 days a week, health insurance

Cons

Sales org is , the expectation is you wont hit your quota, you'll be lucky to hit 50%. Management overhired the past 2 years and now account patches are thinned out to the point they've run out of accounts to give to reps. First line managers are powerless to make any changes. Complex pricing structure has long been a known issue but nothing has been done.

We're sorry to hear that this has been your experience on our Sales team. We hear your concerns with quota, and we believe that some of our recent sales plan structure changes will provide our teams greater flexibility to craft their path to achievement. If you continue to feel that this is an area of opportunity, we strongly encourage you to speak with your manager and/or People Business Partner so that we can understand and improve further. We strive to provide an environment where all employees have the opportunity to succeed, and we will use your feedback to make improvements where possible.
