      Pros

      They pay you, you get a desk, my coworkers were nice.

      Cons

      This is not a place to join if you are looking to grow in your career. This is more of a collect a paycheck and leave early location. CEO is gutting the company. I think it is just the nature of the product. It is past its growth phase and now is just in maintenance mode. Do NOT join here as an "App Dev" - you'll be using XO the proprietary language, which is fine but it isn't a marketable skill and you will have a very hard time switching out of it since no one wants to learn it.

      Pros

      Great culture at the peer to peer level. Excellent learning opportunities, good benefits and great name for resume.

      Cons

      Pretend to be transparent but a lot of smoke & mirrors. Significant cuts to comp plans & commissions that resulted in challenging pay cuts. While salaries were not reduced the OTE is no longer achievable and it’s a difference of thousands monthly, can’t even sell stock because it’s tanked. That being said, we’re disappointed in comp and stock but grateful to be employed because It’s no longer a matter of if you’ll be laid off but when.
