Pros

The company has an incredible culture. They (managers & Co-workers) are always there to help you perfect your craft and to support you in whatever career path you want to follow. Xactly offers excellent benefits which include unlimited PTO, FTO, and sick days.

Cons

Pay is a below industry standards and they have extremely high quotas.

Pros

I've been with Xactly over 5 years and have been a successful part of this company's continued growth and transformation. There is a reason Xactly's won Best Place to Work every year as the culture is amazing and there is no shortage of boomerang employees who left and came back. When I read these negative reviews (along with the timing of them appearing), it's from Sales Reps who couldn't sell anything in over a year while Xactly continued to support them and continue to blame others for their own failure. C-Levels jump on any call that sales needs them to and are approachable. The CEO will involve himself on calls to help close deals. Inclusion is everywhere but people have to take it upon themselves to take initiative.

Cons

Selling a transformational SaaS product is not easy. Quotas go up and Territories get smaller.

Pros

What looks good on paper (open PTO for example), is destroyed by reality

Cons

Where to begin? This is by far the worst organization I have ever worked for in my sales career. Let me break it down a little further to explain why: Culture - extremely toxic and negative. Employee churn was so high, we were losing a person a day in the summer of 2018. Listening to productive feedback is not a thing from senior leadership as they would rather have you sit in silence. The rest of these points below will tie into why the culture is so toxic to your mental health. Recruiting - known for using the bait and switch. Don't be surprised if your offer letter comes in lower than expected or if your job title changes one week into the role (true example: enterprise reps demoted to commercial after moving to Denver). Favoritism - From California all the way to the UK, if you do not praise the men of leadership, you will be dismissed, especially if you speak up about something that you do not agree with. They try to say "it takes a village to sell these deals so leverage senior leadership on anything you can". Well that only works if you're one of their favorites, otherwise, good luck on your own. Also, how can a sales rep who is known for being friends since high school with someone in the C-suite make president's club without hitting quota? (Btw, he was the only one that a special exception was made for). Product - Our own product didn't work internally for an entire year! They did not make it a priority to fix after multiple complaints quarter over quarter. It was not until Q4 of FY19 that they finally did something about it. Reason for it being down, you ask? "The stacked rankings did not produce a pretty picture with how many people were at 0% attainment". It says a lot about a company and a product when more than half of the organization can't sell it. Compensation - what a joke coming from a Sales Performance Management company who "specializes" in incentive compensation. Base and OTE is well below the industry average for both the Bay Area and Denver. The comp plan metrics are so far out of reach, you'll never hit the below average OTE anyways. See next point below for more. Opportunity for growth - not likely considering there were only about 5 out of 37 reps (including those ramping) company wide who hit their OTE. Also not likely considering they just fired a Commercial Manager & about 60% of the commercial reps who they will not be replacing. Senior Leadership - the majority of them were hand picked by Vista because of the excruciating turnover. Which means, the selfishness and greed starts at the top. If you still want to believe the hype, check out the average tenure for sales reps. You'll see a lot with less than a year and even more with less than 2. Do yourself a favor and run for the hills.
