Pros

- Fair salary - Benefits paid for by company 100% - Fully stocked kitchen - Lunch catered every day - Social outlets available through company sponsored events - Educationals available to all employees - Career-pathing supported and available to EE's - Amazing people to work with

Cons

- Start up company - Training for role is insufficient and does help EE lead to success (ambiguous is just the tip of the iceberg - Project management tools are still being tested. No solid foundation to track work. This will be difficult for new grads who have not established/exercised their work ethic and time management. - Inaccurate/inauthentic metrics used for success - Cramped quarters do to recent influx of hiring (note: they are expanding their location soon) - Loud environment (may be difficult for those who have trouble focusing in ecclectic environments)

Pros

Free food Cool people in sales org Middle Management is cool

Cons

The amount of turnover is genuinely astonishing Some teams are hitting less than 50% of quota AI has gotten out of hand.... It's almost comical Laid off 25+ people, partially because of "AI" I can genially say upwards of 10 of the most senior sellers have ALL left in the past 12 months "Upper" sales management is lost - focusing on AI above the actual processes and operations that can grow revenue No 401(k) 2 of 65+ GPRO reps in '2025 went to Presidents Club NO VALUE IN SALES TRAINING Rev-Opp's calls all the shots for partner sales - and they have not made any decisions that have driven an increase in revenue. Upper management and Rev Opp's stopped a majority of lead sources for Account Executives, expanded quotas, fired middle management, and fired the entire team. I would avoid working at Gusto at all costs.
