Pros

Excellent teams across all functions - Engineering, Design, GTM. Humble and accessible founders. Product has found solid traction as a BI tool for the modern data stack with a clear set of capabilities to add to win more of the market. So execution oriented folks can stay focussed on getting a lot done.

Cons

At early and mid-stages of one's career, actually not too many cons. At the exec Product level, I struggled with clarity on who is accountable for what and the degree of alignment between the leadership on core questions relating to the product and company's purpose and identity. For anyone other than a handful of people in the leadership team, this is not a material concern. So I'd not think too much about it, unless you are interviewing for a role in the leadership team. If you are such a candidate, just spend a lot of time (as you should with any employer) talking to the founders, CEO and others in the CEO's team. I don't think any one individual's opinions (mine in this case) can be blindly applied to a general case - Sigma is, in general, a great place with well intentioned people. Fit is a personal equation, that's best evaluated by the individual.

Pros

the people who work there are very nice. the compensation plan is very generous 20% starting commission up to 35%.

Cons

Lots of turnover, lots of leadership changes, must come into the SF office, and if you aren't aligned to successful snowflake reps you won't make any money and then be fired.

I'm glad that you see the compensation plan as being generous - we work hard to ensure that our most successful Sales reps are compensated above market rates. What we find is that the reps that have strong work ethics and are prepared to invest in developing strong reciprocal relationships across our ecosystem partners are often the most successful so we invest heavily to help make that happen.. As for coming to the office, that's something we are very proud of - we have an in office culture because we passionately believe that by being together we are more successful. We understand that this is not for everyone but we are keen to ensure that people are clear about our approach upfront. I'm sorry that you haven't enjoyed your time with us and wish you all the best for the future.
