Pros

There aren't many opportunities in life to work for a company that isn't seeking to disrupt an existing market, but rather to create a new one. That bold vision and thoughtful execution has catapulted the role of Customer Success Manager to recognition as one of CNN's 'Best Jobs in America' in 2017, and as a result, Gainsight as the leader of this new Customer Success movement. The work is hard, but incredibly fulfilling. What I appreciate most about Gainsight is that senior leadership is attentive to the strain that scale can put on employees, and very transparent about challenges when they are surfaced. This constant self-assessment and push to do better for both teammates as well as shareholders is what makes Gainsight truly a great place to work.

Cons

I mentioned this above but scaling is very hard, especially for a company of high ambition like Gainsight. The hours can be long, but it's less of a 'con' if you genuinely believe in the mission of the business and feel challenged and supported in your role.

Thank you for the kind words. I'm glad to hear your experience thus far has been positive. While I still think we have a long way to go to get to the company we want to be, it's good to hear affirmation along the way.

Pros

- Very strong and approachable executive management - Everyone helps out - there are no fiefdoms - Robust solution offering in a space Gainsight created

Cons

- Still a relatively small company; expect to rollup your sleeves and get out of your comfort zone - While growing, the customer success space is still in nascency and higher risk
