Pros

The Gong product is incredible. You will learn a lot and become a great seller. Benefits are good. Lots of cool people to work with.

Cons

Extreme micromanagement. Heard leadership is quitting left and right ever since new CRO came on board, and culture has gone down hill. Management is very KPI focussed.

Pros

Amazing product, world-class engineering team, surrounded by top sellers and extremely high caliber of talent

Cons

Gong is pricing itself out of the MM/ENT space. New messaging and new processes are constantly being rolled out and then changed again every few months. Very few people will exceed quota this year and company culture seems to have taken a nosedive with feelings of uncertainty over what next year will look like and if we’ll be set up for success

Pros

-World class sales training on deal execution -great product Not much else other than that.

Cons

If you’re considering working here make sure you’re okay with always being on edge. Treat it as an opportunity to get great sales training and land a (better) more stable role in SaaS after. They let a lot of talented reps go here within the first 6 months, don’t be surprised if that’s you. Highly dependent on management, and your book of business. There is preferential treatment and reps that are more well liked by director and above will get better opps funneled to them. Oh and morale is LOW outside of a few rah-rah folks trying their best to pick spirits up. It’s more everyone for themselves than their “win as a team” mantra. -revolving door -product of over hiring and unattainable numbers -only as good as your last week -the definition of a “pressure cooker” sales job.

Thanks for taking the time to write a thoughtful review. I’m grateful to read you think highly of our sales training and products. We think they are amazing too. However, it is troublesome that you feel there is preferential treatment and a non-collaborative working environment. Since Gong’s inception, we’ve focused on building a company where every employee is treated equally, feels valued, and where teamwork is prioritized and encouraged above individual performance. I’m sorry that wasn’t your experience. We’re always working to improve, so please feel free to email me so I can learn more about your experiences. - Sandi Kochhar, CPO
