Pros

Teammates are wonderful, kind, helpful people.

Cons

Comp has changed every 6 months for a couple years, including quota increase. Current quota up to over 50% of last fiscal year, when most reps did not hit quota last FY. Comp decrease by 25%. AWFUL! Completely de motivating and insulting...and also not attainable. Middle management is doing their best to support their teams but are constantly bogged down w/ internal meetings making them pretty unavailable for important selling support. Pricing has increased to be not competitive and the product/offering is not robust enough for our high value prospects - making quota that much harder to attain. The overall culture is one of high stress, hurried frenzied direction changes weekly, favoritism, and inexperienced leadership. But most importantly, recent comp structure changes clearly let us all know that Go1 does not value their sales org and is squeezing them to make the org more profitable. It saddens me to say this, but Go1 is no longer a great place to work....Whoever set our revenue targets is 100% delusional as Go1 doesn't have the product, marketing, lead gen or market share to support such lofty goals. Oh, and the SDR team...what SDR team?! Most of them have been let go. Again, so sad to see a very necessary part of the sales org be decimated and leaving the AEs with little to know support.

Pros

Go1 has a lot of amazing people who are working hard to shift the business towards a new vision which will be significantly more competitive and is inspiring to be a part of. Past years of Go1 have felt like the product strategy slowed or stalled, but the energy has begun to rebound as we’ve re-envisioned the product direction. It’s exciting to be part of. The people are genuinely kind, the in-person get togethers (GoGether) are fun and well planned, the culture has improved a lot in the last year!

Cons

Go1 is evolving quickly (feels like a lot of change) because the market is evolving quickly. It can feel overwhelming at times, but better to be moving fast and changing directions vs staying static!
