Pros

The core tech is fantastic.

Cons

I’ve never worked for an organization with so many people, regardless of geography or function, openly talk about how much they want to leave. If you’re looking here - you may be checking out a role because of what seems to be the upcoming waterfall of people who are trying to leave the sales org. People (sales, engineering, channel…) are making much less money this year and, because the culture ranges from non-existent to combative, they have no tolerance to stay. For context on the culture - you need a leader who advocates for you who is in the AppD inner circle or you are SOL. There is combative management styles and manipulating territories based on aforementioned AppD inner circle. It’s pervasive so my impression is it comes from the top. The inner circle is very loyal to eachother because they all plan to follow each other to the next gig. Therefore, if you are not part of that, you are at a disadvantage. There have been situations where territories have moved when a deal is in flight. The house (AppD inner circle) always wins. But, good news, if you’re doing a split and your leader is AppD and the other is not, you have an advantage.

Pros

The pay and ESOP is good

Cons

Toxic management structure. Unnecessary archaic practices. Employee feedback is not at all considered by the upper management. If you get a bad manager, there is nothing more you can do.
