Pros

Nice office and benefits like free lunch

Cons

Unreal expectations, very door salesman-y and pushy even if customers didn't want our solution. The managers required you in the office by 7:30am on Fridays and when you had concerns or needed help they didn't know how to help you. If you were doing poorly on your quota and asked for help they would gaslight you into saying I'm not a good fit for the job. I've never worked for a company that had such inexperienced management and would interrupt people, especially women, mid-sentence. I heard the director many times say shut-up or be quiet when reps would ask for help or explain things. We were paid the same scale as Salt Lake City, which I think is illegal - Seattle is one of the most expensive cities to live in in the US.

Pros

Some of the people are kind, intelligent, and very thoughtful, which made the rest manageable when it unbearable Fancy perks: food, coffee bar

Cons

This is the worst company I have ever worked for. Inexperienced leadership and middle management creates an air of stress, anxiety, and frustration across all areas of the workplace. People often snap at each other, burn out, and successes are rarely recognized or celebrated. There is no sense of team unity. I even witnessed a monkey being brought into the office to be posed for photos during an end of quarter celebration. There is little flexibility for people not being in-office due to family/outside issues. There are too many meetings with no clear organization or purpose, and messages/emails are often sent late into the night, on holidays, and on weekends. I wish someone had warned me not to work here before I started, it was some of the worst days of my life.
