Pros

Great stepping stone into SAAS

Cons

Top Execs do not care for the inside sales team at all. Turn over is at an all time high. Top talent cant even attain quota due to unrealistic goals, account patches, and price point.

Pros

Extremely relevant product; rapid growth; regular acquisitions, very competent middle-management, free soda and snacks, big windows, nice tech-support guys, great SE organization.

Cons

Somehow a public high-tech company allowed a slew of about 90 percent of its management in the door, despite the fact that they are non-technical and severely old school in their leadership philosophy. Directors regularly reminded the office of those employees that worked the longest hours and took the least time off, despite the company claiming that it has “open PTO” and “autonomous culture”. Truly, the average 4-month employee could outsell almost any director. Extremely long sales cycle. Well below average comp plans. Less than 20% quota attainment in 2017 among about 200 reps. And no one cares that there is systemic dissatisfaction or high turnover. I worked there almost two years and felt like I was in an Orwellian warehouse posing as a “fun tech company”. Would not recommend.
