Pros

-Great Product that truly sells itself (partners also do a lot of selling on your behalf). -pay is reasonable (note that I was an external hire) -A lot of nice teammates willing to help, especially when you're new -Remote work is flexible

Cons

- A lot of managers don't seem to even care about their team members. They rarely reach out proactively, to even check up on them members. They really only care about the number at the end of the day. -Super impersonal culture. To provide an example, Teams Meetings are for the most part always camera off. There isn't opportunity to collaborate with other members of different teams. There aren't any departmental group sales training sessions which are normally incredibly valuable for learning the product -Onboarding is horrendous. You watch a week of videos and then you are thrown into the fire. Did not receive any support from my manager in training at all. -Remote work can lead to lack of motivation at times.

Pros

Fairly achievable to hit your number from a sales perspective because the product is so good

Cons

Leadership is very disconnected in every aspect, each quarter has been getting more grueling than the last with a cascade of poor judgements causing disruption that impedes business outcomes
