Pros

Verkada is one of those rare places where high expectations are actually matched with real support. The product sells because it works, customers see value quickly, and leadership genuinely wants reps to win. From day one, I was trusted to run my territory like a business, build relationships the right way, and drive impact without unnecessary micromanagement. The culture is fast-paced but collaborative, SEs, leadership, and partners are invested in helping you close deals and grow accounts, not just hit a number and move on. If you show up prepared, take ownership, and work hard, your results are noticed. I’ve been successful here from the start, and it’s because Verkada rewards effort, curiosity, and accountability.

Cons

The pace isn’t for everyone. Expectations are high, and you need to be comfortable owning your outcomes and staying organized in a fast-moving environment. For the right person, that’s a positive, but it’s not a place to coast.

Pros

DoorDash for lunch, some cool people, and you get to learn.

Cons

No work life balance at all unless you have a photographic memory. Will have test every Monday so no weekend to decompress. On phones 24/7. Not many people hit quota. Most people try to stay a year or two to get hired at another company that is better. Heard other offices were better in all aspects. Very high turnover

Pros

Verkada is a fun company that is filled with cool experiences and exposure to a fast growing company. Lots of events to attend and the opportunities to go “wine and dine” customers/partners constantly.

Cons

You are nothing but a number to them. I have seen people get fired after five months because they walked into a bad territory and despite working significantly harder than other people, they were brutally fired with no warning. Management is always half underwater because the turnover is so high. The product has a very long cycle and relies heavily on happening to get the right budget at the right time. Which many times they end up going with a cheaper solution. Over my course of two years, I had four different managers and several periods of 2 to 3 months with no manager because they had been fired abruptly. There was very little respect given to me by my last manager because I was younger, and they had not worked in a startup before. The pay was very low with me starting out at $42,500 a year and climbing to $99,000 a year after going from SDR to the county executive and then finally to the channel.
