      Pros

      The product and platform is unique to the industry and their are a lot of talented Engineers and Product people that still work here.

      Cons

      -The leadership is out of touch with the employees. -There has been a cascade of bad decisions from a horribly handled layoff off of 30+% of the workforce to a marketing campaign that bashed competitors in a industry that has been decimated and struggling to stay afloat. -The company pivoted to a 100% SaaS company with the new CRO and the approach to the market has been not been well received by prospects with the sales strategy characterized as tone deaf.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Strong product and talented teammates.

      Cons

      The culture is cut throat and every salesperson is anxious of losing their job with no notice. Leadership has their favorites and will do everything to protect the select few. Talented people are given no chance to succeed or make money. Management is distrusting of employees and everyone is micromanaged.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The benefits are good but are typical of any startup: unlimited PTO, free food, beer fridge, fitness reimbursement, etc.

      Cons

      The tech bro (and girl) office culture is one filled with favoritism and frequent hints of racism. Of the 100+ people, you can count the people of color on two hands in the New York, San Francisco, Palo Alto, and Chicago offices. Chicago, of all places, has one POC. Despite not performing, several of the white salespeople have been promoted while the POC are written up and have their jobs threatened for not hitting quota. Racist expletives can be heard playing in music from the office speakers at any given time in New York despite it visibly making the African-American employees feel uncomfortable. You won't find many minorities in positions other than frontline sales and support and based on the racist jokes one of the investors made when he came to the New York office, that likely won't change any time soon.

      As the head of our NYC office, this was so hard to read. I have so much pride in the culture the NYC team has built and respect and diversity are two things that are personally very important to me. That being said, I'm really disappointed to hear about your experience and wish you would have shared this with me sooner. Ownership and direct feedback are such huge parts of our culture and I know our NYC office wouldn't be where it is without the team embracing those values. Please note that you, as with everyone in our office, can reach out to me or our people team at any time should you feel uncomfortable for any reason. I'll personally be addressing every concern you've raised and would also encourage you to reach out so you can help contribute to building an amazing culture!
