Pros

- People were great to work with

Cons

- Upper management stuck in the past - Employees are not valued - Horrible work/life balance. You're expected to be available 24/7 - Used to be a fun environment but everyone seems to just be going through the motions now - Not much growth - Product has great potential but too busy building new features than enhancing what already works

Pros

eGain provided me with the stepping stone needed in order to pivot my career. The team that I had was a solid group with great experience. Our direct manager tried to be as transparent as possible regarding the plans and decisions being made by upper management.

Cons

At SKO last Aug, there were over 100 reps in a banquet hall - the majority of which were new employees with less than six months of being with eGain. Roles for people in the room included sales, pre-sales, sales operations, and management - from both the US and UK offices. As of this post (May '23), there are less than 10 reps covering the US. There has been multiple rounds of layoffs and it is understood that every deal is looked at by the CEO. I doubt eGain is currently hiring as there was a recent round of layoffs however if given the opportunity to interview, know that any deal brought in will be picked apart by the CEO.
