Pros

Good people and a suite of products, some of which work well. Fair overall compensation and a decent culture.

Cons

I just came from the 2024 kickoff and it’s going to be a really challenging year, maybe even impossible. The sales focus this year will make it very hard for me to make my compensation target. My boss says one thing to the CEO and something else to the team, which is disingenuous. There is a strategy to fix what’s broken with some of the products, but I don’t know if it will make a difference this year. The rumor is that the company is up for sale and based upon recent layoffs and exits my sense is it’s being prepared now.
