Pros

-Leadership team genuinely cares about you as a person - and you can tell (especially the CEO) -Competitive pay -Flexible on working from home or working from the office -Amazing people across the entire company -Incredible product roadmap with compelling features released regularly

Cons

Gainsight will constantly push you. Frequently it'll past the stretching point and you feel like you're going to snap. You have to set personal boundaries stick to them so you don't burn out quickly (and this is nearly impossible cause everyone asks for exceptions *all the time*). Working closely with India teammates is both challenging and rewarding - on the one hand, timezone conflicts result in many early morning or late night calls which destroys work/life balance, but on the other hand they're great people and I've learned a lot from working with them. This plus the high targets we have to hit quarter over quarter leaves little time for personal development, staying on top of monthly product releases and new products, and developing relationships with colleagues that you don't directly work with.

Pros

- Dynamic Leadership - Company Culture - Incredible Product

Cons

Like most companies at an inflection point, the work load can get excessive at times. As long as you understand this (and understand that equity participation is a direct anticipation of this), it's not necessarily a "con".
