Pros

- Remote work - Decent equity - Products work well - A lot of great colleagues

Cons

- The worst middle management and above I have experienced in my entire career - EXTREME Micromanagement with very little trust in employees - Toxic line managers who somehow get away with their behavior. Some of their managers have 0 business managing people - The company barely hires anyone outside of the College Development Program (CDP). They clearly are putting all of their eggs in this basket rather than hiring from candidates from industry with real life experience. It is simply a way to cheap out and deceive clients. They also treat CDPers like children - The hiring process was terrible and they overpromise and fall short of those promises when you're hired - A very "Yes Man" culture with no room for personal opinions - Pay is below industry avg - Benefits dwindling fast: went from Unlimited PTO to 15 days (pathetic), removed 2% learning benefit

Pros

-Very generous compensation, including base salary, RSUs, and commission -Flexible "work from anywhere" policy -Collaborative environment with smart, motivated colleagues -Generous travel expense policy with no strict spending limits -Strong culture of internal promotion—though this can result in some managers lacking experience

Cons

-There appears to be a lack of clear financial planning at Crossix. Commission goals are often changed mid-year in ways that benefit the company, and there are significant pay disparities among peers—sometimes exceeding $100K for the same role. Company expenses, including client entertainment costs over $10K, often go unquestioned. Raises are typically limited to cost-of-living adjustments. -Benefits are subject to change with little notice. The 2% professional development fund was removed without clear communication, and “unlimited” PTO was quietly shifted to a “suggested” three-week annual limit—still labeled as unlimited to avoid payout upon departure. -Crossix lacks diversity, with a noticeable gender imbalance and minimal representation of people of color. -Departures and layoffs are poorly communicated to the broader team, which negatively impacts morale. Terminations often happen abruptly and without warning.
