Pros

It's so amazing, I have never experienced a work environment quite like this one. The standards and expectations are high but the atmosphere is encouraging and team-oriented. Work life balance exists and is encouraged. I feel trusted and therefore respected. The interview process is intense, but purposeful - because it is rigorous the people are really top notch. The company is invested in building the People & Culture team which is so important as we grow. The perks are pretty sweet and it seems like they are always thinking about how to be inclusive and how to make benefits better.

Cons

Things are moving very quickly and if you are used to slower corporate pace it might not be a good fit. Our clients are very very important to us, and being restaurants and the hospitality industry, they can be demanding. It's rewarding but can also be challenging!

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
