Thank you for this review, you raise many good points! While a global recession is certainly something that is tough to predict, we agree that making smart decisions around hiring and spending is critical, especially now. This has been a big topic at all of our all hands and town halls this quarter. We have and are continuing to bring in some excellent new leaders in North America, which is such a great market for us, so we're excited for what's to come! Thanks again for posting! - Alyssa Perreault, Director of People Strategy

Pros

Some department heads are lovely people and there are lots of good folks at the lowest rungs.

Cons

It is a highly political and toxic environment. It is a male dominated organization where women are siloed into HR & Marketing. Upper Management is disconnected from those on the ground and breed a culture of fear. Can't wait to find something else. DO NOT WORK HERE. It's too bad because the technology is fantastic.

Pros

Most of the company works from home

Cons

Sales are plummeting, quotas are being missed, and many AEs and sales leaders have left the business, which has severely impacted morale. Despite this, more Revenue Operations people are being added, making it harder to close deals. They've also caused problems on the front end by hiring an SDR leader who restructured the organization, brought in many inexperienced SDRs, and was let go in under a year. Now, we lack adequate pipeline and prospecting support. There's a significant disconnect between what sales leadership thinks we need and what's actually happening. If this doesn't change soon, the future of the company looks bleak.
