      Not a great company to work for

      Software development engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      employee perks are nice. work/life balance is good. opportunity to learn new things thats all.

      Cons

      compensation may not be as competitive, compared to other employers in the area. Manager's seem to care only for the direct reports with whom they are in good terms or maybe friends from some of their previous employers, for the rest of the people on the team its just about hard work, taking up new challenges and at the end don't expect any recognition or promotion for all the good work you deliver. No recognition for any better job done, no growth expectations. Even after putting the Manager's through all the leadership trainings I guess nothing really changes, if the nature of the person is like that.

      Great Product But Long Sales Cycle!

      Account executive

      CEO approval

      Pros

      Amazing product but 1 trick pony. We boast about Financials but 90% of large enterprise customers cannot fit the bill for our solution, especially manufacturing.

      Cons

      It take 2+ years to close a large enterprise deal. Most of the large enterprise reps are starving. Too many reps and leadership keeps changing. It was so bad last year that they had to change the rules for the club trip so more people can attend. If you have made good money in the past, I wouldn't recommend coming here. Although, this would be a great place to start a sales career.
