Pros

Great compensation but not worth it.. Seriously don't be me 2 years ago.. I looked past and sold my soul for a good base.

Cons

From top down the management team is awful. They will only hire managers externally that listen to every command ( dog like behavior ), any decent or self respected manager will be denied or quit within the first few weeks.. They will not promote internally, don't get your hopes up if they promise you that in your interview ( they do this for everyone ). Trust me!! When I tell you, that sooner or later you will break. The managers will HOUND you for everything.. The managers don't do anything to support you here, other than hound you for the forecast.. They will throw you on a PIP for anything after your 6 month ramp. SF hygiene, Sales, Not having camera on for team meetings, providing feedback, etc... Close a deal that's work 5 months of quota?? Does not matter, that was last month buddy. If you do not hit quota 2 months in a row, go find a new job, you are gone. Consistency is the name of the game here.. and let me guess you are reading this and thinking oh its not that bad, they send you leads.. HAH the leads are marketed at $8 pepm.. Every sales call is an uphill battle now, its a bait and switch. This company is one of the most expensive tools on the market. You do what you want at the end of the day.. but stay at your current job. This is by far the worst experience I have ever had, and I am simply still here. Cannot wait for my next role.

Pros

High-caliber team, product managers who listen to customer feedback, amazing leadership, compelling work. Great fit for accountants who want to interact with customers in a scalable function instead of living in spreadsheets and dealing with dated technology and processes.

Cons

Expectations are high, but training and enablement set you up for success. "Make it happen" mentality required. The plane is definitely being built while it's in the air, so patience and proactive communication with the product team is essential, but things are constantly improved as a direct result of clear, constructive, public feedback.

Pros

Really depends what team you're on but I like the team I'm on and being in a highly competitive environment. Great place to work if you're early in your sales career.

Cons

Not matching our 401K drives me nuts so definitely not going to be here for the long term. Turnover rate is high on other teams
