Pros
*You work with a lot of great people who really do care about each other's well-being. *The product itself is pretty good *PTO policy is probably above average
Cons
*Intercom is great at underpaying overqualified workers. They give you the title of support specialist rather than product specialist, which is what is really required of the role. This seems intentional to drive down your market value. *KPIs are crucial to your success, though they are often arbitrary. You will have weekly meetings with managers where you will look in detail as to how you can improve your work. *As support, you will be at the bottom of the ladder at Intercom. Executives will pay little attention to your org. *There is very little opportunity for career pathing. You can become a tier two support specialist or a support engineer. Very difficult to become manager or to get out of the support org. *This is not a 40 hours a week job. You are paid hourly, but you will almost always work overtime without ever seeing overtime wages. *Get ready for more meetings than could possibly be beneficial to your work. *They have a strangely backwards outlook towards remote work.
