XANT Reviews

Here's an example of who's left in the last 6-8 months, and you decide if this is a company worth working at, or a product worth buying. 2 CFO, 2 CMO, CRO, SVP Alliances, 2 SVP enterprise sales, Chief Customer Officer, SVP commercial sales, VP commercial sales. All the above left voluntarily, and most were there less than two years (one CFO was there for literally a week). There are countless other leaders who have left. The sales team is down to a handful of reps with basically no management right now. The common reason for all these leaders leaving (who were big shots at places like Salesforce, oracle, Citrix): Dave Elkington. He is running his company into the ground because everything has to be done his way. Don't believe the hype - this company is not a unicorn. Unicorns don't lose deals constantly to competitors who weren't even in business a year ago.

First off, the other positive reviews on here are completely fake. Within a day or two, this review will be buried two pages down. Recently the company removed the employee count from the directory. Apparently it was too obvious how bad the the turnover was. HR walks around and asks people to post positive reviews on here, or posts themselves. No one would ever put in advice to management "sales needs to be pushed harder". Prepare to be overworked, and underpaid. Anywhere else in the valley pays 20% higher starting off. They sell you on "being part of this great company vision". Vision only lasts so long, till you can no longer make ends meet and take care of your family. Plenty of people end up having to take second jobs because they are so unwilling to give out raises. Every department has had massive turnover. Quarter after quarter now, they have laid off a large percentage of the workforce. It's getting to the point people feel like they are drowning. Everyone is now having to make up for the missing employees. They phrase it as a "performance plan". In actuality, it's just getting laid off. Option one is to leave immediately with severance, option two is a "plan" that you will not meet. You will be let go at the end of that term. Elkington controls everything, I mean EVERY TINY THING. Make sure you negotiate a good base before you join. Otherwise you will be stuck no matter how long you've worked here. The only people who get raises are those who get another offer first. It doesn't matter if your manager or VP promise they will get you one, they always come back with "sorry, maybe next quarter". They told us we would receive "subsidized snacks". Set aside the fact that every other SaaS company around just gives employees snacks as a benefit. These are not only subsidized, they cost nearly twice as much as the Maverick across the street. Not only are they underpaying us, but they are trying to steal our money with garbage food. They recently said there would be lots of raises given out to multiple departments. In the end, only a couple people got very small raises, everyone else was left wanting. In company meetings they've asked people who've received promotions to step up and tell everyone why the love InsideSales. In the end, those people have quit like everyone else to get more money and respect. Were now hearing if we don't hit quota again this quarter, there will be more massive lay offs. Things are looking bleak to say the least. Looking forward to the "Were sorry you feel this way, we only hire the best most amazing, talented, incredible accelerators. We love to do good and be awesome". Sure...
