Pros

The team members and company benefits.

Cons

Lack of leadership support of the field sales team, broken inbound lead routing, Reps doing unethical actions to hit their number and leadership turns a blind eye. Front line managers claim "victim mentality" when you try to surface concerns about broken processes or unfair situations. Front line managers point their fingers at their team instead of trying to actually fix problems in the org. Managers act like they are never in fear of losing their job and are quick to put reps on PIP's. I've never seen so many reps take a leave of absence for mental health as I've seen here.

Pros

Great benefits, on my team very easy to take DTO & work life balance very realistic.

Cons

Constantly changing priorities. Upper management incompetent/rest & vest, middle management powerless to manage up. Culture is not at the center of work life anymore. Constant fear of layoffs, many rounds last year. No raise last year, many more people being placed on PIP than ever. Teams are struggling to keep the lights on. It's not prestigious LinkedIn anymore - just another corporate "shut up and do what we say" workplace. A very hard place to work for someone who worked there during the "glory days" only a few years ago.

Pros

Compensation and benefits are decent Good coworkers

Cons

The engineering culture is on a steep decline. There is forced stack ranking for performance reviews that's naively focused on short term impact. Engineering leadership (VPs specifically) is terrible and holds no accountability for themselves, instead trying to pass down the accountability to others lower in their reporting chain. They are unable to push back on product initiatives and instead want ICs to be blamed for not pushing back on initiatives we don't believe in. Terribly inefficient way to do things. WLB is declining because of all this, and burnout across orgs is on the rise. Multiple high performers are unhappy and have already left or are in the middle of plans to.
