Pros

Some great folks to work with. Aspirations worthy of the work.

Cons

Paying for customer support but expecting experienced tech support. Tactical people inexperienced at strategy running strategy… and it shows. Hyper focused on any reductions - I had a VP grill me over a .03 drop in CSAT… still above goal mind you… and hadn’t been above CSAT until my arrival and work. Multiple departments launched BPOs without proper support or direction. This stretched May responsible so thin. So in short… poor planning, wrong people in key roles, and the solution is to “restructure” (layoff/fire) then just hire consultants to tell them how to structure all over again. Also.. there is too much faith in those who bring Amazonian experience. So many Amazonians have great experience. Unsure the man you have from Amazon now is truthful about him biting more off than he can chew.

Pros

-Strong pay (if you hit your numbers) -Ambitious goals that challenge you -Competitive landscape that will force you to get better beyond exclusively selling -Founders still very involved and very visible to the company and employees -Team cultures are always strong -For sales, you always get in touch with prospects, which is an underrated pro -When leadership promotes internal mobility and career development they mean it and support it

Cons

-Numerous Sales teams that share the same markets/TAMs. Customers and prospects get exhausted of outreach - Since going public, the goal posts keep moving forward even if 60% of the org hit goal. -A number of core leaders have left, new ones still learning the ropes which was hindering the orgs and teams
