Pros

Remote first policy was very flexible and appreciated. Some genuinely good people Pay is competitive

Cons

Managers and senior leadership are out of touch with the reality of what it takes to do creative campaign work, disconnected from the process, and have no strategy. It’s firedrill after firedrill and burnout is the norm. Teams are short staffed, flat growth, and we’re expected to do more with less.

Pros

Great product, strong leadership, and talented people across the organization. Excellent place to learn enterprise SaaS sales and grow quickly as an SDR. Supportive team culture, good training, and a fast-paced environment with many opportunities to work with large global accounts. Strong compensation and career development opportunities for high performers.

Cons

Since the IBM acquisition, there has been uncertainty around the future structure and career path for SDRs. Communication could be more transparent regarding organizational changes, promotion opportunities, and long-term strategy for the SDR organization.
