Pros

Fun happy hours, good friendships with other people in your position, free lunch

Cons

If you are prepared to be constantly stressing about your job to the point where your weekend is only Saturday because you're stressing about your job all day on Sunday then this is the job for you. Management is not open to suggestion and they are not open to molding to fit your specific learning requirements. They make you believe that going to bootcamp is going to be the best thing in the world for you but it gives you false confidence. One of the only good things is that if you can do this job you can do any job; there. are few other companies that will push you to your limits (in a bad way) like this one. Also, if you are an SDR and don't want to continue down the sales path, just leave. The culture is fine, but if you don't drink you basically won't get to participate in anything. Zero work life balance.

Pros

Fast paced, plenty of room and opportunity to grow. Very good starting pay and ability to earn bonuses. Many remote work options. Strong culture and supportive leadership, with fun company events (like the Christmas party) that help people feel connected, even for the many remote employees.

Cons

The pre‑hire assessment is very strict and pass/fail. I’ve referred strong, experienced candidates who I know are good workers, but they did not pass the test and were not given the opportunity to move forward. It feels like the process may screen out some high‑potential talent who could otherwise thrive here.
