Pros

The product is decent and there are some good teammates.

Cons

Where to begin? The company is more interested in national / global politics than in the company itself. If you are a leftist, this is the place for you. If not, then you will find yourself embarrassed to work here with their constant spouting off on whatever DNCC talking point they receive. Pay is mediocre at best. OTE has not increased in about 10 years (if ever) so there are plenty of other places where the pay is better. They talk about RSUs but those get significantly smaller every year to the point now of barely noticeable. Product is still decent but they no longer innovate — except by acquisition which is generally the sign of a company past its prime. The Power of 1 (which used to be a differentiator) is long gone and they have become the same “Frakensoftware” for which they used to criticize competitors.

Pros

Great culture at the peer to peer level. Excellent learning opportunities, good benefits and great name for resume.

Cons

Pretend to be transparent but a lot of smoke & mirrors. Significant cuts to comp plans & commissions that resulted in challenging pay cuts. While salaries were not reduced the OTE is no longer achievable and it’s a difference of thousands monthly, can’t even sell stock because it’s tanked. That being said, we’re disappointed in comp and stock but grateful to be employed because It’s no longer a matter of if you’ll be laid off but when.
