Pros

Selling to the government means that your clients/prospects will always need these tools and Granicus is a well known brand in the industry. The work is also relatively easy compared to other sales jobs.

Cons

Granicus won't pay you what you're worth. They pay below average for their markets and the CEO doesn't believe in raises more than 5% for internal promotions. It's a major internal issue that causes an aggressive amount of turnover. Additionally, HR is a joke. Sexual harassment runs rampant in the sales team and there's no clear action from HR or C-Suite leadership to stop it. Sales Managers enable it as well. Overall if you're fine with a boy's club then this is the place for you, but don't expect to go through the week without at least one comment on your body and stay sober during work events.

Pros

I genuinely loved working at Granicus, and would go back if offered a position. I loved working alongside my boss, and the leadership team above him as they all encouraged & enabled me freedom to grow and upskill by taking on diverse projects with autonomy. -Cross-Functional collaboration always supportive -Encouraging team members, who always take the opportunity to educate -Great leadership team across most functions at the VP & Director level (this is where I have experience)

Cons

-Acquisition integration has been historically rocky at times, but, I think through experience the organization will seek to do better by existing employees at both companies.
