Pros

Fun industry to work in. Industry leading products like Work/Life balance is actually pretty good for an indirect sales role.

Cons

No value placed on professional achievements. Very little opportunity for professional growth without packing your whole family up and moving to another state for a very small raise that wouldn't cover your cost of moving. Salary is below average for Industry. Support structure is very weak for Account Manager and Account Rep Positions. Sales goals are extremely unrealistic and increased YOY even though the market is mature. Annual job cuts make long term outlook very bleak.

Pros

Culture among the best I have experienced - they hire well and treat people well. Great team attitude. Company growing and doing well, and employees have genuine excitement about the future and work hard to contribute to those results.

Cons

Having great skills in your functional area doesn't mean you are a good manager of people. If promoting internally (which is great) need to train on mentoring and managing. Post IPO they are losing some good talent (as often happens), because there are no advancement paths. Don't seem too concerned with retention Bites off more than they can chew - super aggressive goals and quarterly plans are sometimes too ambitious and thus efforts get diluted.

Pros

The people: very non-judgemental of your personal situation. The only thing that matters is that you are fired up about your job. No one cares about what specific hours you keep, though of course face time is valued. The people I've worked with are extremely friendly, passionate, and knowledgable...Great combination The product: everyone needs a home. Our tools to help get people in them are innovative (like commute maps) and work at scale. Perks: great benefits, food is often bought for everyone, nights in (boardgame night) and out (summer party), scheduled fun days, a kegerator on two floors, and plenty of adult beverages nearby. Good social scene. Some good snacks and drinks. The pay is good and commensurate with what you'd expect in the valley/SF Senior Management: has an excellent vision, are very transparent and approachable. They've created a great, open culture that's reflected by the fact that anyone can come up with an innovative idea and communicate it freely to anyone, even the CEO. Also there are no offices...just desks. That goes for senior management as well.

Cons

The main building is older and has crappy bathrooms, no AC, and slow elevators. However, the engineering team is moving across the street to more modern digs. I'd expect a whole lot more if we get a new building in the future...like views of the bay and bathrooms that can handle more than two people at one time. Conference rooms can be hard to book and we need more space
