Pros

Good culture, employee appreciation seems good in terms of promotions, fancy office in Boston and did a good job with the merger earlier this year.

Cons

Post-merger with Citrix's saas division, management made a bad decision of moving most (if not all) of the product development teams to Budapest from areas like SF Bay Area and Santa Barbara that are supposedly known to be the "Mecca of tech". Not ready to adapt the valley culture yet, avoiding investing as much as possible in CA saying "it's expensive!" Salaries are not competitive. Bonus plan is bad. There's no ESPP for the employees and they incorrectly put that on the careers page which is misleading. Maybe a great company from Boston or Budapest teams' perspective, definitely not for SF or SBA.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. Our priority is ensuring a smooth transition post-merger. We understand situations have been frustrating and challenging. Product resource allocation was strategically planned to serve our customers better. We review our total rewards packages including compensation and benefits annually to ensure we are market competitive and that they support our pay for performance philosophy. Your manager and HR Business Partner are excellent resources for any total rewards questions or concerns. Thank you for your review, Jason

Pros

Remote and unfortunately that is it

Cons

Sales org is in disarray, constant changes to quota, replaced all of inbound with reps in Guatemala, very low and inconsistent lead flow. Maybe 25% of reps will hit quota month over month
