Pros

The people are what make this place great. Everyone has such a friendly attitude and there's a great amount of care and willingness to help. You'll end up working with some of the most intelligent people which in turn pushes you to work hard and achieve more. The transparency of what's going on is refreshing. You often hear about things that are not in the public domain yet and every level of management trusts you not to take advantage of this which gives a great sense of community. Specifically for sales people, this is a place where the focus in sales is about making you successful financially. Of course they want you to achieve your targets for the company but they also want to make sure you earn well in doing so and they don't shy away from that which does help.

Cons

It does feel a bit too US focussed but I guess that's because at the end of the day it's a US company. At the moment due to my short tenure here that's probably the worst I can come up with.

Pros

Embrace open communication. Knowledge base culture with plenty of opp to get exposure in thought leadership concept. Approachable management.

Cons

Too risk averse. Being a listed company, has too much constraint in investment to drive longer term vision and growth.
