Pros

- Good product to sell - Great resume builder - Nice new office

Cons

Where do I begin - so much is wrong here. My mental health had never been worse - Unrealistic quota expectations for outbound sales team. Very difficult to attain for those that do their job correctly (no cheating) - Politics. Some teams/reps cheat and have access to resources/loopholes that others do not. When those outside that select group try to do the same thing, they get into trouble. Unfair and toxic that management knows about the cheating but refuses to address it because it makes the company money. - No work life balance. Cannot hit quota without copious amounts of overtime and zero quota adjustment for days off. Reps scared to take time off. - Churn and burn culture. In the month since I’ve left, several of my peers have also left or gotten fired. PIP culture. No one is valued - Low pay for the amount of work, effort, energy needed to hit our quota

Pros

Good pay, good benefits and great office.

Cons

Poor hiring decisions, recent layoffs eliminated mostly remote employees because they are prioritizing in office employees, especially with recent investment in office. RIF was not at all based on performance which meant that some in office employees who don't know what they are doing got to keep their job. You have to suck up to management to get promoted and a lot of really good reps leave as a result of constant micro-management.
