Pros

Great company overall. From a culture perspective, it’s the best I’ve seen. Work-life balance is some of the best I’ve seen. Leadership is thoughtful and the organization is very mature. PTO is reasonable. 401k matching and healthcare are both great.

Cons

Compensation is significantly low in comparison to other CSM roles. You end up making about 1% or less in relation to the territory you support. (EX: your book of business may be 10 million that you are responsible for renewing but your comp is less than 1 percent of that). The only other drawback is that the goal post is constantly moving. Expectations of performance change often even during the business year and sometimes the extent to the significance of these changes are not always properly communicated.

Pros

Being a globally recognized company makes it easy to consistently engage clients. Great benefits. Amazing people (managers and colleagues) For the most part there is a clear path to success and promotions. Executives listen to feedback after every internal call to help guide strategy.

Cons

In office mandate increasing in office days from once a month to once a week. Need to live in Florida or Texas because of the in office mandate. Promotions take a while since there are many people going for the same roles. Hard to reach clients and constant territory’s shifting makes it difficult to achieve the numbers you and management expect.
