Pros

Fellow employees and direct leads are smart, kind, and capable. Clients are often exceptional.

Cons

Complete disconnect between employees and management. Whatever soul this company used to have, it is dead and gone. Re-orgs are so frequent and acquisitions so mishandled that there is simply no clear path to advancement at this company. I'm not sure they even want to advance employees...seems like they may prefer to loose quality talent and replace with cheaper, less committed employees. Promotions are in title only and do not include a salary increase. Near constant turnover and layoffs. Recommendations are repeatedly asked for and then ignored. I was even told to quit asking questions in all-staff meetings or leave the company. Even petty things like saying they want remote employees to be comfortable but refusing to buy an $80 desk conversion from Amazon. Place is a mess.

Pros

Flexible remote work environment and good PTO

Cons

Extremely toxic sales culture here with boys club and clear favoritism. Sales director and VP are the reason for this as they are extremely unprofessional. Mass exodus is for a reason and unsure why HR is ignoring claims on sexism and favoritism with every female employee that seems to be leaving. No career growth or opportunities unless you are part of the boys club here as it is apparently and obvious. Ask the right questions before considering a job here. You are unable to be successful here with onboarding because of completely out of touch and delusional sales trainers. Seems like we are in a complete clown show here!
