Worst company to work for

Pros

Remote work and that's it

Cons

Leadership plays favorites regardless of performance. Comes across as discrimination and creates a completely depressing work environment. People are leaving to work for competitors because the company doesn't treat it's employees right or pay them well. You will never be treated like a human, rather just another body that they do not respect unless you say yes to everything. They will verbally threaten to fire you if you say otherwise. Also - the average quota attainment is close to 2% to 4% across all AEs. Plan to only earn base and if you're lucky, 30% of your OTE. Reach out to current reps that are there before you even consider taking an offer. Most reps and BDRs quit before year 1.

Pros

Work from home. Paychecks don't bounce (yet).

Cons

Product barely works: Discover is good for staffing companies on certain software, but that's it. Engage chatbots don't work, auto scheduler doesn't work, mass texting, all of which is done via Twilio, doesn't work anyway as Sense phone numbers get identified as spam by the carriers. WhatsApp "solution" doesn't work at all. Leaders claim Sense is only company with its solution set, not true. Candidate and employee communications is a very competitive space with tons of other players. Nothing that Sense offers is unique to it. Company is tiny, does hardly any business and is running out of money. On every company wide call, leadership lowers its forecast. Will hit about 40% of sales target this year, and it's all driven by the staffing group. Corporate side is a joke and should be shut down. It does less than a million in business and none of the sales they've made get implemented anyway, because none of the integrations work that they claim exist. If you are hired as a salesperson or account manager and are given an existing (billing) account, be very careful, multiple people have had commissions "clawbacks" when a client tears up a contract because the product doesn't work or worse, its been a year and it was never implemented. Problem is, those reps weren't the ones that sold the solution, so they didn't get paid the commission in the first place. BDR team is a joke. Leaders promise sales reps the BDRs will set 3-5 appointments per rep, per week. Not even close to true. The only appointments they set are from inbound leads, and most of those aren't qualified anyway. But the BDRs will beg the sales reps to "approve" the BDR leads, so they can get paid on them. Very little diversity at the company unless 50% of headcount being located in India is considered Diverse. There was one black and three latino employees in the US when I left this month. Comp is way below market, both salaries & commissions. If you complain enough, you'll have more company shares awarded or worse yet, be given the option to buy more. Problem is that those shares are completely worthless. The company will never be close to big enough to go public, leaders are praying they get acquired by a large HCM provider.

Pros

Fast paced growing company with a VERY strong and loyal client base with proven results. Ownership is involved heavily in the RIGHT way, always seem to find a way to solve problems in an equitable and timely fashion. - Buy it and don't look back.... or come work here and don't look back. - Unreal automation platform, complete game changer. - People are the secret sauce, every single person will go out of their way to help clients, prospects, and internal staff alike. - Legitimate ROI, very rare to find tech like Sense that can be quantified so easily. - Empathetic managers and HR team who legitimately care about your well being professionally, personally, spiritually, culturally, etc.

Cons

The Staffing and Recruiting Industry can be challenging to learn for "outsiders" so ramp can be difficult to those not willing to dive in, product/company/management pull their own weight however so it offsets in my opinion.
