Pros

We are big enough that I feel the momentum of our growth and can learn from many people but small enough that I feel like my contributions are valued and I can ask questions to anyone (even people on different teams) spontaneously. People on the team care about my professional growth and have good work-life balance. If people ever not feel intellectually challenged, they are encouraged (and actually do) change teams to switch things up and improve themselves professionally. There’s a reason why the average tenure on our engineering teams is much longer than the typical 2 years! The CEO knows me and other people’s names because he takes the time to talk to his employees one-on-one. I also like that he isn’t pressured to do what others may want him to do but isn’t necessarily the best for the company. Keep up the awesome work Vineet!

Cons

Having engineer teams in different parts of the world means that super early or late meetings are not uncommon. Diversity in the engineering team can be better.

Pros

Great benefits and great people to work with. The product itself is a great and superior product.

Cons

No training. No pipeline. No real support for SMB. You are basically a glorified SDR. Any real leads come from events or if you have good install base accounts. Hardly any good inbounds come and and if you do get a good and decent size inbound, they take it away from you to give to a mid-market rep. The juice isn't worth the squeeze. If you don't mind constantly grinding, go for it. Otherwise, I would recommend looking else where.
