Pros

The company culture overall is great, you will work with people that aren't just professional acquaintances. I have hardly seen any conflict between people in any of the departments I have interacted with, which is amazing given how quickly the company grows. There is no shortage of technical problems to solve in a cool space. It's a fledgling public SaaS company in a position to really establish themselves, dare I say, to the likes of Salesforce.

Cons

The company is still going through massive growing pains, which has lead to some often crippling over-management. Problems sometimes get beaten with the political hammer for weeks before engineers are brought into the loop. Priorities can shift wildly over the course of weeks/months, sometimes leaving heaps of unfinished work in the dust.

Pros

Great culture Working with intelligent people Product is loved by customers Located in the heart of SF Have a coffee barista....

Cons

Management needs to be more hands on and be 'in the trenches' with the reps more often. There is zero support when it comes to getting help. The biggest con is NO ONE is making money. If I put a screen shot of the overall sales dashboard from the end of last quarter you would see all RED... Meaning no one hits quota...

Pros

Ok atmosphere, with some friendly people. Nice work/life balance. Not much else.

Cons

If you're a millenial, you'll be disappointed. It's not a fun start up type company despite it's age. It doesn't have the perks the likes of Google or Facebook has. Much older crowd and quite corporate and only getting more so. Not getting entire commission due to lack of hitting sales targets. Archaic processes and thoughts. Way too corporate to achieve the lofty goals they set.
