Pipedrive Reviews

Take the positive reviews here with a grain of salt. Most reviews here (if not all) were left upon request from HR and during better times. I mean who really goes out of their way to leave positive reviews? There are few inspiring leaders within the company. There are now two CEOs because the former CEO left neither of which can fill the original CEO's shoes. There is nepotism at the highest ranks of the company, allowing a serial underperformer to main a key leadership position. The person is an incredibly bad manager and fosters toxic culture leading to poor business results. There are large pockets of toxic and depressed culture, most notably the marketing department. There was lots of high-profile executive turnover in 2016. On the U.S. side of operation, employee perks are not that good compared to other growing companies in New York. It's disenchanting to hear the U.S based CEO complain about the cost stocking the kitchen or group outings. Most opportunity for mobility is in Estonia. Very few promotions happen on the U.S. side of business. There is no formal talent development program.

Founders recently parted ways with the CEO due to not wanting to invest in sales & marketing. They have also shown little to no interest in investing in the US team. Recently they displayed very questionable morals and ethics when they let multiple people go days/hours before their stock would have vested. I would stay away from any new roles where they are asking you to build out a new function for them. Risk would be they will let you go once you do the work and they feel they can maintain it on their own.
