Pros

It's a great product, and there are some good people working there. Good pay if OTE was attainable, decent benefits and flexibility in making your own schedule.

Cons

The company churns through salespeople at an alarming rate, often firing people with no warning or chance to improve. It's a much more difficult and longer sale than management realizes, and expectations for salespeople are not realistic. This is not a place where a professional sales person can thrive and grow. I was miserable here and super glad to be gone. No one makes OTE, so it's pretty much a meaningless number. Even the veterans on the sales team are not coming close to OTE, leading to a very poor culture on the sales team. The CEO's leadership style is fear based and extremely negative. He talks about needing varsity level players on his team, but the reality is that this is freshmen level leadership that does not foster a varsity level culture of success.

Pros

The product has potential, and the people I worked with were genuinely amazing and talented. When it works, it could genuinely help its customers.

Cons

Too many to list but I'll try. The CEO is the biggest issue. He is the first to blame everyone around him for the problems - whether they are your responsibility or not - and is never willing to roll up his sleeves and figure out what is actually causing the issue. I've never seen someone who is as distrustful of everyone around him. He thinks the whole company is trying to take advantage of him or is stealing the company. He regularly will make decisions and pivot strategies after a few beverages late at night without consulting the team affected or the leaders in charge of that area of the business. He constantly undermines or talks badly about employees to other employees under the guise of "don't tell them we talked about this". He leads with fear - constantly threatening people's jobs and then wonders why nobody will "bleed for him" or is as invested as him. Basically, this is a textbook toxic culture that will never change despite several leaders coming in to try and change it. Run away.
