      Micromanagement & Old School Culture

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Low quotas that are adjusted for economic times Pleasant coworkers

      Cons

      Intense micromanagement consisting of manual activity trackers and scripts. Not allowed to send follow-up emails to clients or even internal prep emails without it being reviewed and approved by a manager. Leadership does not want feedback unless it's positive. Old school tech stack with no desire to learn more effective tools. Denial that AI is a real threat to their business model. If you're a tenured sales rep, do not take a job here. Their approach is geared towards newer in their career sales individuals that will do exactly what leadership wants them to - specific scripts, slides, and no room for feedback in the approach.

      Overworked, Expected to Drink the Kool-Aid

      Principal researcher
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Reasonable salary, “allowed” to flex hours, good benefits

      Cons

      Lots of hierarchical red tape, ideas are only valued by those with tenure, the work is very very boring, managers are micro-managey, research is not well-substantiated (and the data is often fudged), no clear path for promotion, slow shifts to RTO mean internal moves are impossible if not living within commutable office distance, upper management doesn’t know what they’re doing which means confusion abounds, hustle culture is exhausting (and for what?), threats of layoffs constantly loom, management unwilling to listen to ideas, I could go on and on.
