Pros

Co-workers are great and you can wear jeans to work

Cons

- Pay is way below market - Zero work-life balance - This place does not care about its employees. HR is an absolute joke. There is inappropriate and unprofessional behavior everywhere and nothing is ever done about it, no matter how many complaints - Zero training for new managers - leads to managers who cannot manage and who dont have your back - Company is backed by a private equity firm so all they care about it making money - at the expense of their employees AND their customers - Little to no transparency - shady practices behind the scenes - Products DO NOT WORK - they are constantly selling products that they know are not ready for market and dont work. its all smoke and mirrors

Thank you for taking the time to leave this review! While we have a relaxed and comfortable work environment, we appreciate you bringing awareness to some of the concerns and feedback mentioned. New initiatives are in place to assist with manager training and internal communication within the organization. Adding more resources to our Research and Development and product teams is a way we are ensuring additional solution success as we continue to grow. It is disappointing to hear of the negative working environments and if brought to HR/management attention, we would love the opportunity to address any issues in order to mitigate those concerns and find solutions. We strive and ultimately hope to create an environment where people are valued, heard, and welcomed. We appreciate this feedback and use forums such as this, and employee engagement surveys, to continue to make improvements.

Pros

There are literally no pros that I can provide

Cons

Was here less than 3 months and laid off due to reorganization, redundancy and lower than expected revenue in the first half of the year, even though I hit my Q2 quota. Literally laid off on the last day of Q2 when I brought in a large (over $75K) new sale that I won’t even see the commission on. Worst company and employee experience ever. Changed my account base and account quota twice during the quarter. They overcharge their customers with their yearly “uplift” without any added benefit or value to their services. They are a complete mess and it’s no wonder why their customers are leaving and cancelling their renewals. They have lost all trust in PS. They should be called POS. Their customer/tech support is awful and will take weeks if not months to resolve a customer issue. SLT just says “work harder, build a fake pipeline so that Severin or Bain will think we are doing great!” Ugh. Gross. 20/10 do not recommend.
