Pros

-Huge growth opportunities in terms of career skills and level -Very large total addressable market - huge upside and potential -Competitive total compensation but low base compared to big tech companies -Sincere and nice people -Generous parental leave policy -Transparent Executive Leadership team

Cons

-Challenging goals you are tied to each quarter that impact your ability to get promoted -Pretty corporate culture i.e. open concept cubicles, tools in place for some micro management -Cheaper than other tech companies i.e. no wfh stipends, or real big tech perks -Not all orgs get to experience flexibility of remote work which makes it hard to attract and retain some talent -Flexible PTO not properly respected; it's normal to answer work emails while on PTO despite management verbally discouraging it -Growing pains -Interviews don't always give realistic expectations of challenges within role -High possibility of burnout if workload is not managed properly -L&D is somewhat lacking i.e. no education stipend and courses only focus on theoretical soft skills

Pros

- One of the best product on the market and constant improvements - Working with the best professionals in the sector - Strong sales process - Real step up in any Sales career - Attention to metrics and KPI - Good and extensive hiring process which reflects the required level of commitment from both parties - Good money if you meet expectations

Cons

- Disruptive technology with long sales cycles for larger deals, not always aligned with quarterly expectations - Really high expectations leading to high pressure job (high people turnover) - Work/life balance, particularly during the first year as there is lot to learn - Strong metrics monitoring with some level of micro-management sometimes

Pros

- Great culture - We work hard, but we rest hard too. My manager encourages me to take 25-35 days off per year. The team is also very collaborative and there is no knowledge withholding. - Pay and benefits - Competitive pay and unique bonus structure for CS employees. Perfect hybrid role between CS and Sales for those that like uncapped commission structures. - Great leadership - I love my manager and his manager as well. They are both extremely supportive and willing to get in the trenches with me. - Work/Life balance - I never feel like I'm overwhelmed here and can tell that my boss cares about my sanity. :)

Cons

- No 401k match as of yet
