Pros

Good compensation if you can actually hit the ridiculous targets they pull out of a hat.

Cons

Sales LEADERSHIP -When I was hired in here I was preached to about how excellent the culture was and how unbeatable it was. I was told it would take “18 months to ramp up and really know what I was doing”. My hiring manager got promoted 5 months into the role for me and they brought in some hot shot cut throat who put everyone on PIPS regardless of tenure. I was 3 months live in territory and put on a PIP even though I built a monster pipe and had many deals ready to close for Q2. Bottom line they brought in new leadership who was awful and treated people awful and started firing people on the team. Horrible management. Offers no feedback during 1-1s or help with anything at all. Don’t work for their “lower corp” space. You’ll be shown the door before one year is up if you’re not hitting numbers. Although “it takes 18 months to ramp up and know what you’re doing”.

Pros

- Valuable to have a job in this market, and somewhere that historically pays a market rate - unlimited PTO for fulltime

Cons

- New CEO is something...concerning. Workforce reduction, replacing C-suite with former pals from previous companies, huge push on AI without the subsequent reassurance that our jobs won't be replaced. Seems like the goal is for all of us to train AI to do our jobs before getting let go. Really tone deaf when us little people have livlihoods on the line.
