Pros

Great people, great leaders, the highest commission payout %'s I have seen from a tech company, and a best in market product. I am challenged daily and consistently learning. I know if I put in the hard work, success follows. Loving it.

Cons

As compared to other Utah tech firms, none that I can think of. Its a great culture.

Pros

Career opportunities, premium product that sells itself at times, SaaS, security is an exciting industry, Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESP), achievable quotas, uncapped commission, ramp quota for new hires (sell less for full commission)

Cons

With a growing company comes growing pains at times, no 401K match

Pros

Good people, good leadership at a high level. The products are best in class, the sales cycle is pretty strait forward and can be short.

Cons

They do not promote often from within and when they do they do not pay competitively for the position or role promoted too. They have internal challenges with pushing deals through their internal systems that are not very flexible with customers or the sales team. Pay was not competitive with other companies in the area selling security products.
