Thanks for the positive rating. Couldn't agree more with your advice, and be sure to also share that with your manager, since professional feedback is a two-way street. You'll find that as you grow and thrive in a sales role here, our incentive plans are well designed to provide uncapped earning potential. Our goal is always to help sales reps realize the full potential of their commission, so that they truly benefit from our growth as a business. We're definitely at a point where we're pushing hard to continue our fantastic growth, and our sales teams are a critical part of sustaining that momentum. Keep the feedback coming, especially to your manager, and thanks for the effort you put in every day to find and retain customers.

Pros

Leadership is accessible and open to feedback, even during fast‑moving initiatives. Smart, supportive colleagues who genuinely care about the work and the customers. Strong commitment to cross‑team collaboration, especially between Marketing, Content, Product, and Insights

Cons

Prioritization can shift quickly, which sometimes creates rework or unclear direction. Resource constraints can slow down execution on larger initiatives. Some decisions feel reactive rather than planned, which affects long‑term execution.

Pros

- Strong Compensation Perks: Excellent benefits package, including solid RRSP matching and a competitive PTO policy. - Talented Colleagues: You will work alongside highly intelligent, capable engineers and a very supportive middle management team. - Base Culture: When left to operate remotely, the day-to-day team culture is genuinely great.

Cons

- "False Remote" Expectations: Despite advertising a remote culture, there is heavy, unspoken pressure to be in the office. This is especially frustrating and illogical when your direct reports and teams are based in other countries, meaning you commute just to sit on video calls. - Imbalanced Executive Leadership: Product and Engineering both roll up to a single leader whose background is primarily in sales. This creates a systemic imbalance where product feature delivery is consistently prioritized over engineering health, technical debt reduction, and architectural stability. - Engineering Bottlenecks: Because of the leadership focus, the tech stack suffers. The codebase is deeply coupled and shared across multiple teams, creating a monolithic structure. Because releases are complicated and heavily reliant on manual QA work rather than automated testing, the organization is bottlenecked to only two scheduled releases per week.
