Great office location: 13th floor of downtown SD high rise coffee and kombucha on tap Revamped people's operation to meet tech company standards: unlimited pto, good health, dental, vision benefits, more recognized holidays Product is awesome Amazing mission

Cons

If you're reading this and considering applying to Classy, I don't know if you want to join a company who recently implemented a company wide motto of "One Team One Dream" then fires 10%+ of their workforce 2 weeks later. During my time at Classy there were 2 instances where they let recently hired and/or tenured employees go due to a "restructure in business strategy". The first time they hired a class of about 12 employees and after 3 weeks they let them go and soon after many quit because that's not how you treat your newly hired employees. Everyone on the sales team was told that this was an upper management mistake and that they were moving on from it to make sure it won't happen again. 2 quarters later (1st week of March 2019), the same thing happened. There is very little transparency from upper management down. Not even sales managers knew that people on their team were getting fired until an hour into the day on a Tuesday. Not a Monday morning, not a Friday afternoon...Tuesday morning. Sales quotas are always changing because they just can't get it right.

Pros

It was fine. Some of the people were nice, but not a place I’d want to work again

Cons

Hard to sell when there’s a lot of other great free solutions out there. It’s a good product but the space is really tough
