Pros

The pay and benefits here are really great for a start up. They have very high standards to get into Sisu so you know the people will be smart and motivated once here.

Cons

Management is made up of many people who have never scaled a start-up or even been part of a start up this size. There is a massive disconnect and it seems like they are constantly changing directions. Sales is very challenging and hard to close business. The product is still very early. Most departments in the organization are unhappy, although Sisu tries hard to do surveys and get people to provide feedback the process is overwhelming. Most of your day will be spent in meetings discussing and listening to others talk about which direction they want the company to go in. There is little consensus within the organization. Departures are starting to happen within key roles.

Sisu Data Response

Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback. As Sisu's new revenue leader, I appreciate the challenges of delivering outcomes for clients in any job. My goal at Sisu is to remove as many of these challenges as possible, while helping building a world-class team and sales culture. While we are only two years into our journey as a company, I'm personally encouraged by our strategic vision and long term plan, and I'm glad we've spent the time necessary to ground our execution both in a clear understanding of the market and based on what's possible with ML today. As you stated, it's important for the whole company to be aligned to the company vision, and that's why we're encouraging everyone at Sisu to internalize this vision, raise questions, and contribute to its evolution. I hope you are participating in the discussion groups around our company vision and strategy that are coming up this week. Regarding the happiness of our team members, we of course take this very seriously and, as you mention, have tried to solicit feedback both directly and anonymously on a regular cadence. It sounds like we can do better here, and we will. If you are comfortable sharing more in an upcoming 1:1, I have regular 1:1s scheduled with all members of our sales team. And finally, I want to thank you for contributing to our culture of Winning Together – we don't grow without voices being willing to share. -Chief Revenue Officer
