Pros
Great products and good integrations for a start up
Cons
It’s surprising how quickly my perception of a company I once deeply cared about and was genuinely excited to be part of shifted in such a short period of time. What was once a place I looked forward to every week has become one where rudeness and hostility seem to dominate. The people who made this place great have left too soon, while those who thrive on authority and politics remain. Over the past 2.5 months, there’s been too many random lay offs to sales people with no genuine reasons other than not wanting to pay severance for the over 2 years service, you’ll find the average employee churn is around 1 yr and 7 months due to this. During that time, I truly loved what I did. But now, it feels like everyone is just keeping their heads down, waiting for the next round of lay offs which has prompted the majority of our team members to start looking for roles elsewhere. Good people are leaving due to uncertainty not performance.
Accelerators have been removed for sales staff which defies the objective of an incentive to sell. Commission has been taken away from sales staff for working deals for months due to greed from management.
Unfortunately the internalised misogyny in the sales team has not improved and actions are taken against female staff who try and speak up.
