Pros

Good platform and technology that sells well. Other than that - zilch.

Cons

Terrible, ridiculous, awful management. You are not a human here, you are just a number. False promises and lies, backstabbing and no accountability from management are the ways of the world here. You will get 30 seconds of your managers time every other week if youre lucky. You will get no training or advice, no data or accounts to even target even though youve asked a million times, you will have your accounts taken off of you and given to someone else after weeks/months of working them, and if you do manage to hit target you'll later be told it's still not good enough anyway. Level of activity seems to be important than quality delivered. Saw a team of mostly great SDRs be replaced by interns and pareto law grads (who've never had a job) for half the price of their salary, so opportunity generation is now non existant. Management have no idea how to talk to their teams or motivate anyone, let alone sell, and often attempt to give this Jordan Belfort false, pretenctious motivational crap. Seeing people sacked with no prior warning and no notice, a week before probation was up, for no reasons other than cutting costs. Has put entire team on edge and as mentioned in another review most sane people are looking elsewhere. Literally the worst company and set of managers I have ever had the misfortune of working with, and honestly have no idea how any of the are where they are. If you want to hate your working life and the people you're working for, please apply. If you're looking for great culture, opportunity to grow, want to feel valued and be surrounded by good people, avoid crowdstrike like the plague.

Pros

Remote work culture Is excellent, innovative tech, company's growth and opportunities to protect clients. Felt fortunate to have worked for this organization that has a strong growth tragectoruy and protects clients.

Cons

Manager/Director level: Poor communication from team manager/director, with little to no direction and the lack of team morale. Team members were on their own after training and most meetings could've been an email. The presence of the director was the equivalent of a virtual bulletin board. No ownership was taken from management to lead or guide the team and no sense of loyalty exists between management and team members. Good talent was squandered due to complacency and lack of direction. Company: Con for the company is the unfortunate lay offs that happened after leaving the company. It's a shame they laid off veterans from my former team. The writing on the wall was apparent, from outsourced new hires to the non-competitive compensation for newer hires. The company went from a fun and competitive start up to a disconnected company trying to emulate tech industry trends and "balances the budget" AKA lay offs, to look good to share holders. For a company that nets huge profits year after year, layoffs shouldn't be part of the reality.
