Pros

Some great and talented people that work here. Too bad they don’t stick around once they realize what they signed up for.

Cons

This place is toxic. It enables and allows for leadership to lead by fear and people are quick to throw each other under the bus. The people who thrive here are bullies. There is no company culture. It is a cheap place that doesn’t provide ESPP, raises only account for inflation and all this while being overworked. Additional resources are hard to get and all job offers need to be approved by CEO. You may have an excellent candidate but that can quickly be derailed if the CEO feels the salary is too much or if he’s in a bad mood.

Pros

- On target OTE and uncapped commissions - Great overall work culture - A lot of cool Field marketing events - Ability to expense dinners, entertainment, gifts for clients - Great company vision and a broad security fabric portfolio with several third party validations for a well-known cybersecurity brand makes it easy to sell and be successful.

Cons

- New business quotas are the same for every seller at least on my team, who all have very different territories, some with more white space heavy accounts that can be much more challenging to hit quota compared to other territories. Quotas went up by 20% from previous year. - Too many internal systems to navigate - processes and sales enablement tools could be more efficient - You can be the top performer in your US sales segment, and still not make it to President's Club because of the way it's structured - competing against different segments and only top 3-4% get to go each year. Rewarding top performers in general is an area needing improvement in my opinion.
