Pros

Your coworkers keep you alive. Ryan Olson and Jordan Staples are amazing managers

Cons

- Constantly moving goalpost, you can hit your number all year and then be told you suck at your job by people who have never been in sales - No actionable feedback until its time to use it against you as a reason to be underpaid - threatened legal action by HR when you choose to leave - decisions made from ego - Organizational changes are rarely thought out or fully baked before being implemented, which makes you constantly fighting to keep your head above water - Blatant lies constantly from leadership - Favoritism to the CA office in terms of accounts, deals, leads, salaries, promotions, territories, etc - They keep people with major HR violations on staff because they bring in lots of expands, and then put them on your team and say deal with it or else - If you try to bring up concerns, you are threatened to be fired, but then after the fact when people leave they are told "this is your fault, why didn't you bring up your concerns?" - the product doesn't work, but hide that and sell it anyway - put down from the founders and upper management no matter how your perform or how long you've been at the company and been loyal to them - constant leadership turnover - no proactive change, only minor improvements after a full year of the team begging

Pros

With the strict exception of sales leadership, spot ai has some of the best employees around. The engineering, sales, and cs team are top notch, but they have also survived some of the most consistent and degrading changes over the years going from a once 32 account executives strong, to it's current count of only 6 account executives.

Cons

Most of the best employees who helped put spot ai on the map were either unjustly fired, or left. Sales leadership typically only lasts about 6 months and employee churn from sales, to engineering, product development, deal desk, and marketing have all left.
