      Pros

      Getting to stay remote - for now

      Cons

      They laid off or will lay off dozens of people after this “restructure” is done. Yet notice they haven’t addressed it on here nor have they addressed it to the employees. They even didn’t tell customers and just cancelled meetings Anyone staying is taking a pay decrease. They keep stating that the bonus game and comp will offset it. However, we broke sales records and got one of our lowest bonuses ever. Forced RTO for employees. The mileage range will increase I’m sure. Out of touch CEO. Morning meetings that are just there to let execs ramble, I have not gained any knowledge from them.

      Pros

      Great office snacks, free ev charging, cool coworkers

      Cons

      Out of about 100 AE's only 10 hit Quota, OTE is a joke there. It's possible to hit quota if you are lucky with your inbound leads, but if you want to hit quota every month you have to do something moreso out of the box. I was trained by hard closers and have a lot of expierence with cold calls so i came up with my own script and was getting a demo a day, and was doing a demo a day. The demos did lead to sales as well, so it wasn't a waste of time. I got fired because of a "lack of professionalism" I spoke off script all the time because speaking on script leads you in to the Kool-aid drinkers club, aka not hitting quota consistently. I was fired without warning, even though I was told I had an incredible work ethic and was exceeding the ramp-up numbers. I just didnt match their sales style, they are not looking for salespeople, they are looking for sales associates. They make you work 9-hour days, 1 hour mandatory lunch that has to be taken in the middle of the day. 9-6pm. Their handbook even says you are allowed to take this lunch at 5 pm to go home sooner, but the managers never let that happen. DO NOT BE CREATIVE AT THIS JOB, DRINK THE JUICE.
