Pros

The company allows for remote work for certain roles.

Cons

-Micromanagement (non-subject matter experts telling subject experts how to do things) -Lack of adherence to company values -Culture 'talk' but not in practice -Roles under-leveled and underpaid compared against fair market values and similar companies in the same industry (from what I have personally seen) -Outsourcing roles to India to save money (even during the best quarter in years) -Lack of support or team environment -Operates as a small business when it is not a small business any longer -Highly siloed with little cross-department communication -No clear understanding of the business as a whole due to siloed structure (the term 'matrixed' is thrown around a lot)

Pros

Fantastic company culture and excellent, full support from a highly collaborative cross-functional team that genuinely wants to see enterprise deals succeed. Overall, it is well inclusive and supportive company culture.

Cons

Rapidly changing product landscape can occasionally make cross-functional alignment a bit complex.

Pros

-Strong pay (if you hit your numbers) -Ambitious goals that challenge you -Competitive landscape that will force you to get better beyond exclusively selling -Founders still very involved and very visible to the company and employees -Team cultures are always strong -For sales, you always get in touch with prospects, which is an underrated pro -When leadership promotes internal mobility and career development they mean it and support it

Cons

-Numerous Sales teams that share the same markets/TAMs. Customers and prospects get exhausted of outreach - Since going public, the goal posts keep moving forward even if 60% of the org hit goal. -A number of core leaders have left, new ones still learning the ropes which was hindering the orgs and teams
