Pros

Colleagues that used to be employed here

Cons

A growing company that downsized after 5 years . If you enjoy being attacked by a CEO who masquerades herself as a person who has a heart and cares this is the company for you. Your CSuite is composed of two people that you can respect while the others don’t question the CEO because of job security . If you value not being listened to join this company where growth is promised alongside no plans to grow the company. Like smoke and mirrors .. perfect the CEO is just that smoke and mirrors .

Pros

The base salary is solid... but then again, given all of the layoffs it’s hard to be confident in how long it will continue.

Cons

Management: from mid-level line management to c-level leadership is 100% atrocious with absolutely no redeeming qualities. Strategy: LOL, what strategy? They’ve acquired two organizations and now find themselves making layoffs in order to keep the lights on. People who are key players in the generation of new revenues (ie solutions engineering, sales) now find themselves on the street and those left behind are sharing a single SE... this company has set itself up to fall flat on its face and the worst part is mgmt and c-suite seem to be either oblivious to or in denial of their many blunders. They talk about how the “tables been set” and we just need to execute now to get to breakeven and ultimately cash flow positive, but everyone in the room is laughing to themselves about the prospect. Moreover we talk about being disruptive but the reality is there are hundred other companies that can do what we do and do it better.

Pros

I was in enterprise sales for topia from 2017-2018 before investors showed the founder/ceo the door, so *maybe* things can turn around there, but don’t hold your breath. Good base + ramp so if you need to score some money over 90 days it can be a decent move. Small sliver of equity that will never be worth anything.

Cons

One of the most radical leftist executive management teams in the valley. They make public statements on the reg that make it impossible to sell anything anywhere outside of San Francisco or Havana, Cuba. (Open borders, trump derangement, pro-abortion, etc...) exec mgmt so out of touch with the in the field reality of market perception, customer sat, value prop. Sales mgmt that’s never sold anything in their lives and will literally embarrass you in front of key accts in your territory like Exxon, Dell, shell, Jacobs, massive enterprise accts that you will have to continue to call on once you leave topia assuming your time there doesn’t ruin your career. Unbelievably toxic culture, meritocracy is a foreign concept, presales support is nonexistent. Total circus in all the worst ways.
