Avoid Phyllis Simon like the plague
Pros
There are some good people who work here (e.g., Michael Sacks). They can give you actionable advice on how to progress accounts, demo the product, and ultimately be successful.
Cons
Michael Sacks is (as of December 2024) in poor health. Accordingly, managing the sales team has fallen to Phyllis Simon, the CEO's wife. She confuses age with wisdom and thinks she is God's gift to sales. In your 1-on-1's with her, she will berate you for every little thing you did wrong. If you haven't done anything wrong, she'll make something up. Ever heard the phrase "there's no such thing as a dumb question"? To Phyllis, there's no such thing as a good question. She is not there to help you. Turnover has been a problem for years there, and of the half dozen former salespeople I've spoken to, each has specified Phyllis as the problem. If it was just me, fine, maybe I'm bitter. But it isn't just me.
