Pros

Lots of talented, smart and well-networked people. Initial salary/commission offer was strong (but no raises/increases). Solid product, marketing does a great job of providing lots of releases & momentum.

Cons

Leaders were hired for their network rather than their skills and market changes have caused them to lead with fear. Many junior managers in all departments have no ability to challenge ideas due to fear of retaliation. Leaders focus more on internal celebrations/kickoffs than supporting pipeline (ironic). Pattern of diminishing benefits including PTO policy changes, paused (only to immediately and silently cancel) 401k match. "HR" is unhelpful at best. DEI is deliberately ignored. Morale was low and appears to only be getting lower. Work life balance is important and if you don't invest in people, competitors will regain their market share. When people leave, they aren't complaining, they feel ignored by leaders who refuse to listen. We still want this company to succeed - start caring for your employees.

Pros

I will always look back on my time at Qualified with fond memories. It is a fast-paced, hard-working, smart group of individuals. Everyone respects and appreciates one another, and that is visible even from the top down.

Cons

Startups aren't for everyone. It's very fast-paced, and a lot is expected of you. Everyone needs to be willing to roll up their sleeves and do the job.

Pros

- Leadership team and product are unmatched, if you want to learn the ins and outs of how to run a business, while learning from everyone you work with on a day to day, this is the spot for you - Everyone at this company is excellent and exemplary at what they do, everyone pushes each other to be the best - The transparency culture is unlike any other company I've been at, you know exactly where you stand from a personal, professional, and performance standpoint every single day you work here - People here genuinely want you to succeed and grow in your career - our new head of HR has done a fantastic job at allowing people early in their career explore what they'd actually like to do/try out

Cons

The transparency culture is not for everyone, and that's ok - you will know exactly where you stand every day you work here, if that scares you, it's likely not going to be a fit
