Pros

- Experienced leadership team who have successfully exited multi-billion dollar businesses - they know what they're doing - Growing faster than most other companies operating in London - loads of opportunities to learn - The food is amazing! Although if you'd like to spend your whole time at home, that's fine too

Cons

- Some of the processes aren't suitable for a company of our size - we're getting big fast - Relatively US-centric still, but that is changing

Pros

Innovative product, constantly growing the platform

Cons

Compensation doesn’t feel competitive for the workload and expectations of the role. Frequent annual changes—including territory realignments, account books, verticalization, and quota adjustments—create unnecessary disruption and make it difficult to build long-term customer relationships and pipeline. The company has grown rapidly, but account distribution hasn’t always kept pace with headcount, leaving many reps competing for limited opportunity and making OTE difficult to achieve consistently. The Team Lead role is one of the biggest pain points. Team Leads are expected to operate like frontline managers without the compensation or authority that comes with a management position. They carry a fully ramped quota while also traveling, mentoring new hires, leading office hours, answering rep questions, supporting onboarding, and taking on enablement responsibilities. While these leadership opportunities can be rewarding, they often come at the expense of selling time and make it significantly harder to hit quota.
