Pros

- Product is very good and business model is very disruptive to the industry - Company perks are good, especially when in the office - Compensation is average

Cons

- Leadership team has a huge front about caring for the company - When COVID struck the US, we were one of the last companies to switch to remote work because "it's better to work in-office" - There has been such a high turnover rate that it's clear the culture has an incredible amount to be desired - Leadership team can't do anything but brag about themselves while backstabbing their loyal employees

Pros

Free lunch every day, good enablement program, fun social events for reps, lots of really smart people and a decent product.

Cons

Culture and professionalism are abysmal at Navan. Sales org operates like a fraternity; one big popularity contest of sales bros. No one gets promoted (though they will claim there is ample room for promotion, it is simply not true. In my time there, I only saw 3 SDRs actually become AEs. The rest were strung along or promoted to ‘talent accelerator programs’ where they are essentially doing the same thing for longer and same pay.). Pay is terrible, they do not contribute to your 401k (stingy), no one hits quota, and those who do are able to because they are the golden children of the sales org. Huge issue with disconnect between leadership to sales team; things are not communicated well, policies change every few weeks, and the only people it affects are the reps who are treated as disposable. Complete burn and churn operation. The turnover is crazy, I would say less than 20% of reps stay here longer than a year. If you want to learn and grow as a seller, experience professionalism, and move out of the SDR seat anytime soon, I would go anywhere else. Genuinely anywhere else. Especially if you are a woman, would not ever recommend that a woman works here.
