We strive for all of our employees to have a great work life balance, we're so happy to hear that you've found that here! When a company undergoes major transitions (like the transition to private equity), it can have a deep impact on company culture. However, we want to assure you our leadership team has carefully thought through a plan to rebuild employee trust and invest in employee experience, two very important pieces of company culture. Thank you for your honesty, and we appreciate your review!

Pros

- The people (ICs and leaders) with very little exception are fantastic. Great CS organization - Strong tools like Salesforce, Gainsight and Claude and strong support to maximize their use

Cons

- So much brain drain of late, the last 1-2 years have been chaotic - Price increases and pressure on sales teams to uplift translates to strains on customer relationships and retention - Used to be a great employer, changes since the company went private have been sad to see and experience.

We agree - our people are simply the best! Our employees are what make us a great place to work, and we are forever thankful to them. However, we are saddened to hear some of your feedback that isn't as positive. We know that the transition to private equity brought a lot of change, and it can feel like navigating the chaos will never end. One of our biggest goals is actively rebuildling employee trust and calming that turbulence, and we've started to do so through increased transparency and open lines of communication. We sincerely appreciate your review, and we wish you all the best in your next adventure.

We're so happy to hear that you enjoyed working with your colleagues and had quite the career path! While we agree that we must always listen to our customers and employees on how to improve our product and the experience, we do want to highlight that we've made quite a few product improvements over the last year, the biggest ones surrounding our AI capabilities. Thank you for your review, and we wish you all the best in your next chapter.
