Pros

Only positive is the people

Cons

Literal DUMPSTER FIRE! Compensation is way too low. But if you want to go back to being a 25 yr old SDR and make 250 dials/emails a week by all means this job is for you. The processes are terrible. They will tell you amazing numbers in the interview process...it's all a lie. 6 people hit quota in 2022. 4 of those people have recently left the organization. Their outlook is terrible...Oh and they just sent sevy agreements out to the 137 people they laid off last week and just rescinded them. The change: lowered the severance amount by $5k! Literally a bunch of idiots.

Pros

Pay and benefits were pretty good. Only reason I stayed.

Cons

Chaotic leadership. People are constantly busy doing things that don't matter as there is no clear understanding of what the strategy is or what success looks like.
