Pros

You have the opportunity to commiserate your employment with a ton of nice folks who are also suffering and planning their exit strategy.

Cons

I've never been abused worse by an employer nor let go under more illegal terms. The company has no transparency, no appreciation for their employees and no real vision. This company is run by people invested in the product who plan to sell. This is not a safe place to be working. When I was tasked to hire for my team I couldn't make it through an interview without dissuading people from applying. The environment was so toxic, scary, and two-faced that I highly recommend you look for work elsewhere.

Pros

Great organization, very forward thinking and technologically driven with reliable equipment, and best in class customer service. Everybody wants to win and the entire organization will work to make everyone successful.

Cons

Very high paced, fast moving environment where you are the master of your own universe. Some folks like guardrails and metrics, this is not that place. You dictate your worth and prove yourself everyday with every phone call, email, demo, and unit sold.

Pros

The people on the team were good and the location wasn't terrible.

Cons

They told me during interviews there'd be a structured onboarding program and weekly coaching, but for the first three months I was basically thrown at the deep end watching random old recordings and hoping something stuck. Nobody had time to actually help, and when I asked about the promised training plan they just kind of shrugged and said it was on the roadmap. The commission structure they outlined never happened either — I spent six months chasing deals they promised would be easy closes with existing relationships, but there were no existing relationships, just empty promise and vague targets. Every single thing they sold me on during those interviews either got deprioritized or never existed in the first place. It felt like they were reading a script they didn't believe in.
