Pros

Opportunities to work with bleeding-edge technology, lots of opportunity to find your niche and contribute.

Cons

Bleeding-edge technology can be tough at times. Due to growth, some teams seem to be adding people 'just because' rather than evaluating the pros and cons of adding additional members. There is a TON of work to do over the next couple years - if you want to just do the same thing and not venture outside of your comfort zone, be careful about the team and/or project you get involved with. (not really a 'Con', but important to know)

Pros

Not a single pro, this company is awful

Cons

- Leadership promotes their boys club buddies that severely lack leadership skills - The product sucks. It's nowhere near industry standard - The culture is HORRIBLE. Very much sink or swim, no support, zero engagement with other employees unless you suck up to them or are in the office - Mid Market "RVP" leaders are some of the worst Ive ever seen. If you dont go to them to appease their ego for every little thing, they will "manage" you out - SKO was the worst broke company efforts Ive ever seen. Shouldnt have had one, this company is embarrassing. The public speakers and corny jokes were the most cringe thing Ive ever witnessed, Ive never felt more demotivated in my life - Boys club culture to the fullest, if you dont stroke everyones ego, you're out Stay far away from this company. Go to a real CX/UC company. FIve9 is begging for acquisition and no one will take them. The system is old and ugly. Run from this org. Don't bother.
