Pros

Earning potential is high, product is nearly flawless; top of its market, engineer and product teams are genius and keep evolving the product to match customer needs. Perks are great; delicious catered lunch and fully stacked kitchen. Lyft and Uber credits make commute simple. Coworkers are brilliant not only at their current roles, but on their side hustles and life/work experiences.

Cons

Feedback is only from top down, no open forum for other way around. Would love to see some more women in Mid-Market! (even though the ones we have are AMAZING :) :)

Pros

-super smart, supportive co-workers -very clear this is a team environment, everyone is quick to help -they are very selective with hiring only the best talent, that also has to be a cultural fit -great benefits (401k match!), all the snacks you can eat, lunch 4X times a week, happy hours, cool office -amazing product and customer support -if you work your a** off and blow it out, you will get paid very well. This is not a place for "average" performers -very quick and robust training program so you can start selling right away -tons of opportunity for growth and promotion, we promote from within!

Cons

-no flexibility with OTE packages, need to add a tier for more experienced, enterprise type reps that want to hop on the rocketship but aren't quite a fit for Field just yet -accelerators could be a little more aggressive -this isn't really a pro or con but be prepared to grind. Hyper growth startup destined for greatness = hard work. -a lot of cold-calling, get used to it, but it will get better as we grow our ADR team -the industry is very slow, old-school, and not entirely technology driven. Know how to speak to the transportation industry and have patience
