Pros

People, energy and overall market space are fabulous Very profitable with focus on innovation and launching cutting edge technology CEO and President are visionaries and very inspiring

Cons

Sales org lacks true professional leadership at most senior levels Lack of any business operational excellence or even interest in adhering to process Run and gun - work harder not smarter is the mantra which burns people out What is said "lets scale the business" is not what is done or acted upon "keep grinding it out"

Pros

The company was fantastic when I first started working there, the culture was embracing and supportive. Folks seem to care about your development at first and your growth.

Cons

After 3ds bought the company it started going downhill gradually, many c suite turnover, terminations and new latest CEO is clueless when it comes to executing the vision, while also making sure they continue delivering on NEXT all on all these features when at launch half of them don’t even work properly. Having spent years at the company I saw clients lose trust on the products and leadership, a lot of times CEO’s from client side would give advice on senior management on processes which being the vendor we should be the leaders on guidance not the other way around. Consider applying to other SaaS companies.
