      Avoid the EBU (Enterprise Business Unit)

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great products, amazing opportunity to make real $$$ if you are overachieving, and customers love using the software. Innovative company with inspiring, visionary CEO. Great sales culture within CBU.

      Cons

      Very few AE's within the EBU hit their quota due to small territories and high quotas. There is high turnover in the EBU because reps aren't performing or making money, although the top performers can make 1M+. Quotas get raised 25% each year. Too many products to focus on. Poor culture in EBU with high pressure to perform on a monthly basis, although enterprise sales cycles can take 6-18 months.

      Great opportunity, but unable to deliver on promises.

      Pros

      The culture of give-back is promoted structurally and informally and is pervasive. They provide superior compensation, flexible time-off/schedule, significant perks, and foster a deeply collaborative environment. The expect competence and provide a highly challenging opportunity.

      Cons

      Poor management is pervasive. Lack of leadership and commitment to big ideas creates gross inefficiencies, unclear expectations, and conflicting outcomes. Overly headquarter-centric in politics. The maintain an institutional arrogance that disrespects their competitors and creates overly idealistic strategies. Executive leadership tends to believe things get done because they want them to get done, without providing communication, support, or transparency in decisions.
