Pros

Met some amazing colleagues and leaders over the years. Unfortunately, most have jumped ship or were laid off. Great product, but overpriced.

Cons

Leadership boasts about transparency at the All Hands meetings, yet conducts several silent layoffs of loyal, hard-working, top-performing employees because they need to “cut spending” when 2023 budget went towards things like (1) ridiculous firework show at SKO, (2) remodels of several US offices, (3) flying out several AEs to Chicago for quarterly dinners with the CRO (We’d rather keep our jobs than fly out to Chicago for a steak, JD). Poor, destructive decisions made throughout 2023 and continuing in 2024. Stay away for now and hopefully things turn around because the product really is great.

Pros

The merger has created a real sense of momentum here. We’re no longer thinking in terms of individual teams or regions — we’re operating as a truly global company with a unified strategy. Leadership is leaning into long‑term thinking, cross‑border collaboration, and building a stronger, more scalable business. It feels like we’re entering a new chapter with bigger opportunities and a clearer vision for where we’re headed.

Cons

Change can be disruptive, especially when it happens quickly. Even positive transformation creates uncertainty, shifting priorities, and temporary ambiguity around roles and processes. Not everyone adapts at the same pace, and the constant adjustment can feel exhausting without clear communication and steady leadership support. Leadership has been transparent.

Pros

Colleagues were wonderful. At first there were some great perks but those slowly disappeared.

Cons

This company is a garbage fire disguised as an “industry leading” PSA solution vendor. Just look at the leadership turnover year over year and you’ll get a good idea of what type of organization this is.
