ZoomInfo reviews

Terrible, rotten commute unless you live in a town adjacent to Waltham. At times the seemingly rudderless corporate drift has an effect on the morale of lower-level managers and staff. CEO is brilliant and at times charming, friendly, and wise - but can be quick to change attitude and direction - and worse - staff. In the end, it seems as though things are always half-baked and never followed through to completion - the company is in complete fire drill mode all the time. In my 2 years there the VPs of Engineering, Sales, Marketing and even the company President were replaced. CEO values Engineering far over and above Sales and Marketing to the detriment of corporate growth. For instance, the company hired with pomp and aplomb a new Marketing VP for "branding" purposes but then turned around and showed them the door within a year. Viewing from afar it seems like things are a bit more on track nowadays - but beware, some corporate cultures never change.

-CEO is an absentee officer. He lives in Israel and is only on-site periodically throughout the year. When he is there, spends all of his time on engineering with little to no focus on sales and marketing. Interested in creating product with no concept of selling and marketing it. -Direction of executive staff is constantly changing. One month, they'll prioritize one project, and then quickly lose interest regardless of the time its employees invested in said project. -Sales Manager is a good dude overall, but stretched too thin to be of value to people that need his help the most -Little to no help from marketing, in finding and distributing leads from web-site visits, trial periods etc. Not marketing's fault, no set system in place for them to do jobs properly. Director of Marketing also lives in Israel, and while very smart, has no prior marketing experience. -Sales team is expected to prospect and close 90-100% of all new business. Due to lack of recurring revenue on new business (for most account executives), there is a real danger of quick burnout due to the constant need to prospect. -No territories or specific verticals to own and concentrate on.
