Pros

Userzoom is an essential player in a sub Industry of Tech under UX Research. UX research' importance is exploding rapidly like never before. It's the newest form of customer services and enterprises are realizing it- slowly (previously) but now at a much more rapid pace. This company doesn't offer the best solution nor the cheapest but it has a recognizable name and usually get's brought into purchasing considerations.

Cons

There are some outstanding employees at this organization, amazing people, as well as some rock-star-sales-talent. I don't know how this company attracted good talent, but it did. With that being said, every company has its fair share of carpetbaggers: this company- has more than enough of them spread throughout the sales team. A good number of the Account Executives are inexperienced, offensive to clients, and unwilling to help mentor newer SDRs *huge problem for career advancement*. This sales team isn't the typical sink or swim as it's much closer to "here's your ball and chain, now- go for a swim". Diversity at this organization only seems to be important to the members with seniority. If you aren't a part of the "original sales regime" you're better off keeping your ethnicity close to the chest. I, personally, as well as my colleagues, were mocked for being from all kinds of different ethnic backgrounds- the behaviour was condoned by higher ranking employees, senior employees and management.

Pros

- great people still work there in contributor roles (and a few managers) - people are genuinely friends outside of work, and the company encourages coworkers the socialize, with a family environment - lots of fun social activities that the company puts on to get employees to know each other on more than just a profession level - great office spaces in Mountain View, San Francisco and Atlanta - awesome perks including fitness classes, massages, and lunches twice a week.

Cons

- Executive Management rushes into critical decisions without consulting the experts it has hired for opinions and to do things the right way. - Product is not seen as essential to new customers, and management constantly artificially change the product without actually improving it to justify higher dollar spend than customer wants to commit. - New management hires do not fit well with the core employees who made UserTesting into the rapidly growing company it is. - Executive team is quick on the trigger to let go of key staff, while keeping other highly paid VPs and directors who are dead weight because of personal relationships. - The Executive Team feigns like they get involved into the details of the business, but really have only high-level knowledge of what's going on. - Many managers are either inexperienced, over their heads or ineffective. - Marketing team has yet to product sufficient leads for sales to realistically achieve their quotas even with outbounding.

Pros

The work culture is amazing! I love my coworkers; it's easy to reach out and ask for help--everyone is extremely friendly and genuine. My managers have always made me feel like I am cared about as a person, and I appreciate that they are always providing and encouraging us to take opportunities to learn and grow.

Cons

UserTesting has grown a lot in the past few years and is shaping up to be a formidable company. As such, working here, you can expect a lot of changes (in internal processes, etc.) that will eventually lead the company to greater success.
