Poor culture, company on the decline

Pros

Fully Remote Company Decent Benefits (no 401k match & PTO is only 15 days annually)

Cons

An interim CPO joined in October and she’s been driving the culture across the entire organization downhill ever since. She leads with fear and is on a mission to cut any cost possible - resulting into unnecessary RIFs they try to cover up. Her entire leadership team has quit over the past 3 months and others are leaving almost weekly. Numerous employees are unhappy on all teams and are leaving the company left and right - many sharing their experiences on Glassdoor. In response to these many negative, but truthful reviews, HR has requested employees, including leadership and new hires, to leave positive ones to try and boost their overall rating. The company is constantly missing quarterly revenue goals. In my tenure, we've only hit one quarter of what was forecasted. The excuse is always "important big deals fell into the next quarter" and the cycle continues. They've had a plan to IPO for at least 7 years now that continues to get delayed year after year. My advice to anyone considering joining - pay attention to the negative reviews.

Pros

-Strong technology with a lot of promise across many industries. -Few leaders have a deep understanding of the technology making them an integral asset to the sales organization -Remote work

Cons

Toxic sales environment - sales managers are clueless, treating the sales origanization as if they were grade school children with no leadership skills. Their ‘motivational emails’ are disgraceful - offering help/assistance when in fact they are incapable of providing support; they cannot even grasp our offerings. This is a strategic sale however they treat it as if we were selling used cars.

Toxic Sales Culture

Pros

Cool technology, buts its a nice to have

Cons

The culture on the sales side, specifically around SDR's, is terrible. You live under constant surveillance, aka micro-managed and nobody is happy. The new leadership came and destroyed what was good and rule with an iron fist. The worst part is they do it with a fake smile on their face. It's too bad as prior management was starting to make some positive changes. There is also no room for growth. 1 SDR has been promoted in the last few years.
