Samsara reviews

DO YOURSELVES A FAVOR.. Sort the reviews to see the most recent reviews. Now scroll through the last 20 reviews. Majority are either 1 or 2 stars. Do not accept a role here. Upper management at Samsara preach culture, but don't practice it themselves. Culture is so bad that a quarter of the Commercial team is either planning on leaving, or are actively looking. Morale is so bad around the office that you can walk into the restroom and overhear people openly complaining about their conversations with recruiters outside of Samsara. Work life balance is non-existant. The company preaches an unlimited PTO, but my PTO requests have been denied both times that I've asked. Lunch is a quick 15 minute chow down at your desk. You can leave your desk, but if a director or manager sees you, they will grill you. Time in/out is managed to the dot. ie) people have gotten 'the talk' after showing up 2-3 minutes after 7. Truckers that you work with are often blue collared buyers and you'll be responsible not only for the sale, but also if they decide not to pay. You'll be making collection calls to the truckers with HQ's in the middle of Iowa. You'll eventually take the financial hit for sales that come back months after the initial purchase. You're basically a Costco of ELD. Every time I ask for help from my manager and director, they have put me in a room to ask if I want to continue my role here. They are not interested in my development as a rep at all, but what I can sell today. My advice to you - look for a sales gig elsewhere. I know I am!

Samsara pitched themselves as a company where you would be valued, and could grow your career. Not true, at all. You are just a number, that is easily replaceable with no room to grow. Promotions are office politics, and go to the ones who are favored by leadership. (Well not now, due to covid, they aren’t promoting anyone at all lol) Management is clueless. They expect 100+ dials a day, and quota isn’t enough. You have to hit 150% of quota every month for them to praise you, but even then your job isn’t secure. You miss one month, and your in the gulag in the eyes of management . Ae’s Can be very tough to work with, and your manager won’t back you up. Managers don’t work, and barely know how they can help you. They don’t ask either. 1:1’s are a joke. I can ramble on about this company, but my advice is don’t do it. Most other companies will be better! Trust me.
