Pros

Fast-paced work environment focused on growing the company and improving its product(s). A fun, vibrant culture where coworkers are actually friends. Good opportunity for promotion and career growth, including changing roles and/or departments. Company likes to hire/promote internally.

Kontras

As with most startups evolving to the next stage of maturity, there are some growing pains.

Continue working on improving the company’s viability long-term and hiring top talent.

Pros

Very transparent company in every aspect - criteria for promotions, company strategy and upcoming changes, etc., were all made known to us. The company prides itself on everybody being in the loop on everything. AWESOME management! The best coaching and guidance I've ever had at a software company. Great earning and career potential as well, especially for a startup. You can progress in your career and... earnings very quickly here if you're willing to grind it out.

Kontras

You have to put in the effort, similar to every other sales role out there. Have to be willing to grind for what you get.

Keep it up! We all appreciate the transparency and strong team dynamic.

Pros

Sales has some of the best compensation plans with manageable quotas in the industry. Supportive and encouraging management team. Solid and affordable benefits. Great training for anyone new to the sales world, even for those that worked at other orgs could benefit from the theories and strategies taught here.

Kontras

Cold calling is always a grind. Snacks are sold in a grocery style environment with a hard markup. Music leaves much to be desired on the sales floor.

Rat an das Management

Do away with the grocery with snacks and provide them as a perk. Always sucks to have a company finding revenue streams to offset costs using their employees.

Pros

Time off, Great music, Good people

Kontras

repetitive, stressful, challenging, rewarding, unique

Pros

Cold brew on tap, ability to make lots of money, decent training

Kontras

There was no work life balance at all they expect you to be in at 8 and leave at 6 on top of working Saturdays. 250 calls a day at least. Management doesn't care about you, you're just a number to them (except for a select few people). Turnover rate is CRAZY and they will even give dirty looks if you get up to go to bathroom more than twice a day. They scream at you if you are off the phone for more than a minute.... They also listen in on your calls when you don't even know.

Pros

There very good at selling people on the job.

Kontras

Everyone is on cocaine or Xanax. You make no money. Also get yelled at and punished for not “selling hard enough” aka bullying someone into buying something they can’t afford or won’t work for them. The product is terrible

Rat an das Management

Make a better product and you won’t have to act like con artist and only have strung out people selling

Pros

Decent snacks. multiple rooms to escape to.

Kontras

Overworked. Neglected. Gossipy culture. Creepy managers. If the HR team were competent, half the people here would be fired.

Rat an das Management

Actually be managers. You're all a bunch of immature, gossipy losers. No wonder the CEO stepped down. As did the CFO. As did all top managers. All the decent people are gone because they realized what a joke this place is and how much better they could do.

Pros

You have a lot of freedom to propose changes and actually see them implemented. Most everyone smiles at everyone in the break rooms (...it could be because there are 15 new sales reps every few weeks to replace the 15 that just left and you don't know if you recognize the person or not so you "smile" to be nice). If you are in sales, come work 60 hour weeks and yes, you can make money. If you are in any other... department, stay away.

Kontras

There aren't any promotions in any departments other than CS and Sales. The company is struggling with where to go next growth-wise and is stuck in a loop of doing the same thing over and over and over and over again hoping for a new outcome. Pretty sure the company is trying to get acquired within the next year so there is a strong focus on cost-cutting measures (WTF is this new snack system...can I has fruit back?)

Rat an das Management

Develop career paths in every department. Actually do regular performance reviews so poor employees can be weeded out -- right now we just go around them not expecting much resulting in everyone else taking on more work in the end.
