Pros

Exposed to great ideas and talent. The company is open to innovation and working hard to grow and lead the industry. Exciting time across all divisions. Love the diversity of the business, and that building!

Cons

Layers of bureaucracy can lead to slower-than-desired change and too many cooks in the kitchen. Some big, fragile egos in key roles. Average employees often need to rely on industry news for company updates.

Pros

Sales team is super bonded over terrible senior management.

Cons

Executive leadership team is not equipped to manage high performing sales people. They mange first year sales reps the same as they manage 20+ years of experience sales reps. 5 members of the sales team have voluntarily walked off the team in the last 2 months and no changes have been made to leadership. Leadership said they were changing our comp plan mid year, but wouldn’t telling us what it was changing to (essentially asking us to sell like normal without telling us what we’d be paid).
