Pros

Fun when it was going well. Fun people. Decent first role out of college.

Cons

Falls behind most other adtech companies in terms of actual sales training. You can easily hide behind the product without actually ever learning anything about sales.

Sudden layoff

Pros

Great Manager, hard working and collaborative team that delivered results, support from immediate team and others, and opportunities for development.

Cons

Sudden layoff without much context or communication from leaders. Although there were plenty of signs, I was made to believe that I would not be impacted due to my results as a contributor to the team’s successes.
