Pros

-The managers of the sales team are empathetic, hardworking, and helpful. They are always there to encourage their team members and help in any way they can. -Good employee experience improved by managers despite remote work- always trying to improve camaraderie. -The platform itself is great and easy to authentically talk about its value. -Detailed and effective onboarding, great training team.

Cons

-The higherups never interact with the lower level employees so there is little transparency: lay offs, changing pay and commission plans, changing role responsibilities and descriptions constantly. -Constant pressure to hit quotas, despite extremely high number of accounts... but very unequal distribution of accounts as well (some SDRs have 80 accounts while others have 550+ at seemingly random) -Extremely disorganized and chaotic CRM and processes. -No communication between departments (Even between AEs and SDRs) unless the individual employees take it in their own hands to do.

Red flags and confusion

Pros

Some perks at Phenom are decent although lacking compared to other later stage tech companies. Beautiful, modern office and free food were available during my time but were being reduced. Interesting product that feels cool to work for - Silicon Valley work in the Philly area.

Cons

During my time, I had zero clarity from leadership, often stuck between what the founders wanted and what other leadership advised. It made for a very confusing 9 months, with projects often started and halted with little notice. I get it, startups can be nutty, but this was excessive. I was also promised several things that did not come true - a referral bonus, hybrid schedule with a role change, and a 10% bonus that would likely have never come to fruition. No 401k match, limited equity offers, lacking basic processes, and leadership seemed checked out.
