Pros

- Excellent culture, supportive and inclusive - Well perceived product with lots of customer advocates - Good opportunity to achieve target, depending on territory

Cons

- Too much dilution by overhiring AEs and expecting business to magically increase - Ex SF management can be quite cut-throat and scattergun - AI strategy has been poor articulated and left us looking slow compared to our peers

Pros

Great culture at the peer to peer level. Excellent learning opportunities, good benefits and great name for resume.

Cons

Pretend to be transparent but a lot of smoke & mirrors. Significant cuts to comp plans & commissions that resulted in challenging pay cuts. While salaries were not reduced the OTE is no longer achievable and it’s a difference of thousands monthly, can’t even sell stock because it’s tanked. That being said, we’re disappointed in comp and stock but grateful to be employed because It’s no longer a matter of if you’ll be laid off but when.
