Pros

Propeller is made up of a some incredibly welcoming and super smart people, who are never hesitant to lend a hand or have a chat. They make you feel like part of the family from day one. Leave your ego at the door, there's no petty competition here. Everyone is genuinely supportive of each other and you really get a sense that everyone is working towards the same goal.

Cons

Fairly loose work structure means a lot of figuring things out as they go. Be prepared for lots of experimenting and changes as the company finds it's legs and figured out the best way to get things done. Flat hierarchy means you're expected to step up, work independently, and be self-driven. The culture is friendly, but at the end of the day, you have to be driven, passionate, and good at what you do.

Pros

The people at Propeller, especially on the frontline teams, are what make it worth showing up every day. Colleagues are hardworking, supportive, and passionate about what they do. Frontline managers go above and beyond despite little recognition from senior leadership. It’s a good entry-level spot if you’re looking to get your foot in the door, but if you’re serious about building meaningful SaaS experience, you’ll likely want to look elsewhere.

Cons

Compensation is far below market, especially given the demands of the role. The company enforces aggressive targets without offering bonus structures. Leadership seems either disengaged or focused on the wrong priorities. Systems are a mess—salespeople are asked to duplicate work across HubSpot, Gainsight, and endless spreadsheets that wastes time and kills productivity. There’s a clear gap in SaaS experience at the top, and it shows.
